First Class Mail is the best rate to use to send packages weighing under 8 ounces. The average DVD (in its case, packaged) will weigh between 4 and 5 ounces. The cutoff for Media Mail/First Class mailing is 4 ounces, so some one or two-disc movies will go First-Class mailing rate and some will go Media Mail.
Analysis. As you are on the 3 -at-a-time rental program, and there are 22 shipping days per month, there are a total of 66 DVD rental slots per month (each DVD you can have at a time is given a slot on each shipping day). Because you are paying a flat monthly fee of $16.99, each of these slots cost you $0.26. Each shipping day that you hold a DVD instead of mailing it back uses up one rental slot. Your late fee is thus $0.26 per shipping day. Netflix doesn't ship on Saturday or Sunday. That means that if you return a DVD on Friday, then you won't get your next DVD any sooner than if you returned the DVD one day later.
