In fact. Although on some genres, digital is still very disregarded. This happens a lot here in Berlin, specially on the techno scene. I can understand how for non-techies digital is somewhat alienating---vinyl is more sensorial and helps having a more intimate relationship with the music.
However, I find that as a developer for me digital is less alienating. I play with Mixxx, a libre DJ software, and I have dug in the guts of its code... its digital wires feel intimate to me. I have also built a framework for scripting it [1] and tweak or rebuild the scripts for a specific event. Analog is for me more rigid and limiting.
I expect that as coding becomes more common in the general population, digital will be perceived less and less alienating and the current elitism around vinyl will fade...
