Send them the list of songs and artists in plain text, and let them
queue it up in their platform of choice. Unfortunately, there's no
standard, cross-platform way of sending playlists to someone.

Creating a collection on discogs.com might be a good way (for vinyl and
CD recordings). It's a community based database and marketplace site
that doesn't directly translate into a playable playlist. However, maybe
with some custom programming with their API, perhaps you could whip up
an import/export function for music you currently own? Just a thought.
