Good sound fidelity is easier to reach on a vinyl record than good video fidelity on magnetic tape. Hence why even old TV shows that were shot on film look great on modern TVs, but their tape counterparts look dated.
That all being said, VHS has inherently more sentimental value due to its widespread use for personal and home video. Anyone still using vinyl is either a hobbyist, collector, or moronic audiophile who can’t cope with stuff like opus or even flac/wav.
VHS next to DVD on a CRT is why lol.

Another point is that the one on the top is a premium model, whereas the one on the bottom is meant for us plebeian masses.
You really think portable vinyl player is the premium model? Oh you sweet summer child…
