I bought a Vinyl player (AT-LP60XBT) but rarely use it because I feel like I can't tell a difference between it and Spotify through my speakers (Edifier S350DB). Only difference seems to be it's more inconvenient.
It feels like the inconvenience is what people _like_ about vinyl? But maybe my setup just isn't good enough to tell a difference?
Kinda. It's not that we like the inconvenience. We like that it's something that you have to commit to doing. You can't really go for a run or a drive or work on things. You're sitting down just to listen to music and, while you can do that with digital media too, it's much more deliberate with physical media.

This is where we differ. For me that is not an inconvenience but part of the experience. I enjoy picking a record to play, removing it from the cover, checking it for dust or dirt, and putting it on the turntable. Probably mostly for nostalgic reasons.
