As I've said a few times, there's a part of me that wants to actually have a good stereo system.
And then there's another part of me that realizes that I've damaged my hearing enough over the years that I won't be able to tell the difference 
For me it's less about the quality of the music, and more about the experience. Because, as an EE you'll likely know, that modern uncompressed digital versions are either not discernably different to the human ear from vinyl/analog, or in many cases actually better than vinyl/analog reproductions and playback. Some people prefer the "warmer" sound of the vinyl LP record but really, that just means they enjoy the imperfections inherent in the medium and playback equipment.
So for me, it's not the sound, but rather the experience and deliberate intentionality of selecting an album and listening to its in its entirety. It's the ritual of removing the record from its sleeve-- which has large discernable graphics compared to what's available on CD or a small picture of the album art contained in your streaming medium of choice. It's the routine of setting the record on the platter, lifting the tone arm, aligning it to the beginning of the album, and letting it play.
I have a separate room for my "Vinyl Lounge" and I've intentionally not equipped that amp with any streaming capabilities. I've found that I'm able to disconnect and experience music in what I consider to be a much healthier and more enjoyable manner, when I go to the Vinyl Lounge and play LP record albums. It's relaxing and comforting and for sure, more than a tad nostalgic.
To be clear, I still have streaming apps and streaming devices, and there's much to be said for the ease and convenience of whipping up a party playlist in a matter of moments using my fingertips. But I've also found a place for relaxing and enjoying music in the way I used to, when I was a kid and teenager. And musically, I'm at my happiest, when I'm doing so.
