The economics won't work for manufacturing laserdiscs. While the sonics could be quite good, there would be a very limited market since consumers would have to buy a new player. No major manufacturer will get on board now since it would further confuse the Blue-Ray/HD DVD issue. You might as well bring back Elcaset.
A new analog medium
It's been about 60 years since the introduction of the reel-to-reel tape; isn't it about time for a new analog medium?
Actually, there was the Laserdisc in the 70s and this optical analog medium is probably the best candidate for a new analog format.
Vinyl and magnetic tape are far from perfect and far from being convenient to use. There is room for improvement in both of these areas.
