Sound quality of new vinyl recordings.

I've brought 180G copies of my favorite LP's. Most were definitely better then the old pressings. But as @vonhelmholtz stated, it all depends on what company did the new pressing. Getting opinions is your best bet on which ones are better or not. 

I would recommend The Robert Plant/Alison Krauss release on vinyl as a great recording. Although, I cannot tell how much of it was analogue vs. digital  recordings/mixing. A good sign in my point of view. My turntable/cart combo is around $5K, just FYI. 

Almost anything except rap and country. But it needs to be a good recording. My system will expose bad recordings.

What kind of music do usually prefer to listen?

Considering that MOFI made digital copies of analog tapes for years and everyone thought the whole process was analog, I think that we can at least say that like analog, there is digital done right and not so much…

It is pretty much impossible for an analog master of a popular piece of music to be copied over and over again without degradation.  Also, time degrades analog tape. So, archiving to digital makes sense, so you can’t judge a particular record except by reviews, or by reputation.
