"Better" in quotes, because what constitutes better for you is subjective. It is however objectively true that the fidelity of CDs is more accurate than vinyl. Now having said that, you might prefer the sound of vinyl, or just the physical properties for playback, over CDs. That's all fine, and I sincerely hope you enjoy yourself. What gets my goat though, is this nonsense people are falling for regarding superior sound quality. Buy CDs, rip them to FLAC, and you have both physical media (which I love), and also the convenience of digital copy.
