Twitter Earlybird?s Latest Trick: Making Something Called A CD Cheaper Than An MP3

Twitter is keeping the hits coming with their Earlybird specials. Hot on the heals of a deal with Buy.com for Madden 11, a new deal today offers the number one album in the U.S. at a nice discount: Arcade Fire's The Suburbs.

But what's sort of odd about the deal is that it's for the CD version of the album -- you know, the compact disc, remember those? And the deal actually makes said CD cheaper than the MP3 version of the album. If you visit this site, you can get the CD for $7.99, while the MP3 download version of the album is $8.99. And the CD version comes with free shipping in the U.S., so it is actually cheaper.SYNNEX SYMANTEC SYKES ENTERPRISES INORATED SYBASE
