What is the actual percentage of people exclusively listening to vinyl vs digital?


I well remember in the ‘80s when we were amazed and thrilled by CD.
Wow, no more pops and clicks and all the physical benefits.
Seems so many abandoned vinyl.
But now, with so much convenience, available content and high SQ seems even dedicated vinylholics have again abandoned vinyl and embraced digital. However, there is clearly a new resurgence in analog.
But I look at, for example, whitecamaro’s “List of amplifiers...” thread and no one seems interested in analog!
To me, it seems strange when auditioning “$100Kish gear, that vinyl doesn’t enter the picture or conversation.

Was a total vinyl junkie that used to demonstrate to friends how much better a recording sounded on lap rather than cd. Even when the initial recording was digitally recorded! That made me pause... 
after several decades and remastering of many recordings in high-res, purchase of a really good dac (Yggdrasil) blew my mind at how much better digital streaming was than my vinyl. I have a good but aging setup of equivalent cost for my vinyl- Ariston RD11S turntable, modified Grace 707 tone arm, and Benz Ace cartridge.  Hardly ever listen to my records anymore.
