Vinyl has its limits because the louder the peeks in your track (usually low end), the wider the groove needs to be cut with the lathe. To hear low frequencies, their amplitude has to be pretty high. Yes, most of us enjoy the lows. But to enjoy them, they have to be pretty loud.
If you're mixing your own music to play live, digital offers a huge advantage. The dynamic range is huge. Yet when we get mastered music, especially dance music, we're using a much smaller range than what is offered. In fact, we're crushing the dynamic range as much as possible with computer software, so hard that the music is crying for mercy.
You'll find that vinyl offers more dynamic range. Not because it's superior, but because the mastering techniques of the time were more gentle. When you turn it up LOUD, the music will breath instead of becoming this huge wash of sound.
Listen to anything dance oriented mastered in the 80's versus stuff that's being done now. The sound is completely different, even when you factor out the genre and style.
Vinyl is seeing a comeback. But I don't think it's the medium but the techniques used to create it. -
Touch screens are okay... but you just can't get the same level of accuracy or feedback as you get from manipulating a tangible object like a fader or a pot. Don't think so? Drive your car using an iPad.

Now if NI could get some more influential DJs in front of the cam endorsing digital DJing, that would be fucking great. Talk some sense into the hidebound vinyl nazis.
