That's a phenomenon specific to used LP's. It has nothing to do with the current classical market or streaming.
For whatever reason, of the people who are into vinyl these days, only a vanishingly small proportion are into classical on vinyl. Far, far less than the proportion of people who bought that classical vinyl in the first place. So there's essentially no market for it. Record stores will generally buy only specific rare/historical/mint classical LP's, in contrast to how they'll buy anything by Bob Dylan.
I'm not sure why -- curious if anyone knows. The two obvious theories are that buying LP's is a "hipster" thing and hipsters aren't into classical, or else that classical listeners are always looking for the highest fidelity and vinyl ain't it. After all, it's classical listeners who have long traded FLAC files rather than MP3's.
