a slight correction to what WendyD said:
Video Killed the Radio Star was by the "Buggles", not the Bangles.
Myke was correct about the first pop CD being Abba.
The website you give the link to says later that the Dire Straights album was the first "all-digital" recording, so they also recorded it digitally, in addition to releasing it digitally, i.e. on CD

Compact Disc reached the market in late 1982 in Asia and early the following year in other markets. On August 17 of that year PolyGram produced the world's first mass-produced audio CD containing classical music: Claudio Arrau's rendition on the piano of various waltzes by Frederic Chopin. The first pop music CD by the same producer was ABBA's album The Visitors.

Ooh I should have known that.
The first video on MTV was Video Killed the Radio Star by the Bangles.
And the first time I ever saw MTV was when I came downstairs one morning and my daughter had it on and there was David Lee Roth with the giant inflatable penis.

An answer anyways ... The first CD pressed in the U.S. was Bruce Springsteen's 'Born in the USA.'
