I’m a huge fan of Amazon’s MP3 store. Downloadable music, in universally-playable MP3 format (i.e. works with everything, not just with the iPod), with no DRM, for a reasonable price is a pretty compelling proposition. And every day they offer a different album as the “Daily Deal” for a steeply discounted price (usually $2-3), which has provided me a bunch of opportunities to build out my music collection.
That being said, I’m not sure in what universe this qualifies as a “deal”:

I’m pretty sure they use tracks from this album (like the Chipmunk-ed cover of BeyoncĂ©’s “Single Ladies”) as torture devices at Guantanamo Bay.
So if you’ve been looking for an opportunity to spend $3.99 to feel like a prisoner of war, today’s your lucky day!

If that's too hard to understand... well, I'm sorry. There's only so much I can do. I'm not a therapist, and I'm not a miracle worker. I wish I could help you work through your delusional belief that I'm speaking for anyone else but myself. Honestly, I do. But in the end, that's a monkey you'll have to get off your back on your own. Sorry.
