    Waaaah. We don't do 1/20 of the volume of Netflix and haven't set up as many direct PO boxes to avoid sorting but we want our discs to be handled super super special at the cost of the USPS.

    This could be avoided if they had Netflix's extensive PO boxes and shipping centers. Those discs don't even need to be sent through as much sorting because Netflix has more than 100 shipping centers and local PO boxes across the country. I've mailed my Netflix discs off in the early morning and had an email that evening that they had received them. Gamefly, on the other hand, has four, in Los Angeles, Pittsburgh, Tampa, and Austin, which leaves massive parts of the country sending the discs through multiple sorting centers and extended routes.

    Netflix isn't "handled" better. They've set it up to where their discs are hardly "handled" at all.
