True in that there are less die-hard CD fans compared to vinyl, which is always on a perpetual resurgence in some field or another, be that DJ's, wannabe DJ's, hipsters thru to audiophiles. It's always has a strong and following.
CD's, not so, as digital, switch to other digital mediums just removed the negative part and that was having to take it out of it's caddy and placing into a player.....An experience less exciting than vinyl on many levels we could all probably agree upon.
So I'd say that this was inevitable and not a swing or sign of things in any way. Though perhaps how some formats, whilst simple, still excell. Which with analogue and digital in many area's, still seeing divides for quantifiable reasons. Photography would be another area in which has its own bastions of the film format camera's.
But vinyl has managed to carry on and not on the back of core users, it's had wave after wave and removing any single group, be them hipsters who move onto something else, won't suddenly kill off vinyl as many fashion born resurgences do.
