I have quite a bit of vinyl that has all been bought in the last few years. I love vinyl as a format but with certain records my vinyl copy is simply for collectable purposes. I still use vinyl as an extremely cheap method of picking up lots of albums but of course these really need to be albums of a certain age. I wouldnt buy too many new releases on vinyl, i would just get the CD.
For some of the stuff I've bought I've bought on vinyl to avoid any kind of remastering. Not an issue for a lot of stuff but for some of the stuff I've bought vinyl has been the only way to get the original master.
