CDs don't sound like anything - you can't hear the difference between a modern AD/DA system and a length of wire. When recorded and played back using good equipment, they're effectively perfect to the human ear.
Some people subjectively prefer the distortion imparted by vinyl, which is fine. Some people enjoy the theater of pulling a record from a big colorful sleeve and gently placing the needle in the groove, which is also fine. Vinyl isn't better - it's objectively worse as a means of accurately reproducing sound - but some people prefer the experience.
