It's not just the physical copy, CD's are limited to 16 bit resolution and 44KHz sampling. Vinyl far exceeds this dynamic range so although there's more background noise the fidelity is IMHO better. MP3's are a very poor relation especially if the sampling rate is low.

It is also the case that many artists want the vinyl sound as part of the experience for the listener.
