I'm not a DJ, so my comments are restricted to evaluative and recreational listening. I grew up with vinyl having been born in the 50's, and have had CDs since they were introduced in 1982. So I feel qualified to comment on this issue.
I do not miss vinyl. I did not enjoy the maintenance involved: cleaning and washing records, cleaning styli, adjusting tonearm balance and anti-skate, cartridge overhang, etc. Call me OC, but surface noise, static and scratches drove me nuts. These artifacts also sucked out at least 10% of the available dynamic range of vinyl, which was limited to start with. So don't get me started with dynamic range. And don't say my setup was to blame. My last (and still extant) TT was a Technics SL-3200 with a Shure V-15 type V cartridge, which is more than decent by any standard.
So when CDs arrived, I just looked ahead, and my TT has been in cold storage since. I'll open it up occasionally when I want to hear an old LP that I don't have a CD copy of, but for the most part, I'm pretty much done with fussing over it. Sure CDs are more strident than vinyl, but dynamic range, noise, and channel separation are light years better.
For casual listening, I choose CDs, DVDs, and all the data-noncompressed digital variations of those (SACD, DVD-A).
For recording, my preference would be high-res digital (96/24) with the best available converters.
My analog medium of choice is analog tape: 1/4" 2-track at 15 ips or better, and 2" 24-track at 30 ips or better. For both listening and recording, I'll choose this over vinyl any day.
