vinyl siding or cedar shakes?

If your house is 50 years old. Some of Its cedar shakes are dirty and have holes (becayse of the birds)Would you like to reprint it or put a new vinyl instead ? The quality of the material is the main concern.

Which is cheaper vinyl siding or redo the cedar shakes on my house?

There is almost 2,000 square feet to cover on my house. I don’t know if it would be better for me to do vinyl siding or just replace the cedar shakes that I have on my house. Does anyone know how much it would cost for each one? I’m in Ohio.
