In the United States, the United States Postal Service (USPS) has specific guidelines for shipping media, including Blu-ray discs, via Media Mail.

According to the USPS, Media Mail is a cost-effective way to ship books, CDs, DVDs, and other media items, but there are some restrictions and requirements to keep in mind:

1. Eligible items: Media Mail is only available for shipping media items that are:
   • Books (including audiobooks and e-books)
   • CDs (compact discs)
   • DVDs (digital versatile discs)
   • Blu-ray discs
   • Video tapes
   • Audio tapes
   • Other media items that are not eligible for First-Class Mail
2. Restrictions: Media Mail has some restrictions:
   • No live animals, plants, or hazardous materials can be shipped via Media Mail.
   • No items that are prohibited by law or regulation can be shipped via Media Mail.
   • No items that are not properly packaged or protected can be shipped via Media Mail.
3. Packaging requirements: To ship Blu-ray discs via Media Mail, you must:
   • Use a sturdy, rigid container that can protect the discs during transit.
