is the sound of vinyl due to the physical process of the turntable?

Same here. I do not own a turntable, however, if the sound of vinyl comes from the physical act of the record on the turntable why can't I transfer digital audio or at least emulate that process to digitally recreate that sound? I remember back in the 1970's you had 45rpm records on the back of cereal boxes and they were not vinyl, however they sounded good why can't I do that myself?

I put three thin strips of 3M silver tape on the
cd player spindle, taking care not to affect
the platter.  The middle piece of tape is longer than
the two peices on either side.  The top of the spindle
is curved, so I used a flat edge to gently push the tape 
down onto the spindle.

Better sound, with the tape in place.
