Doesn't help much with photos either, unless the price of the photo itself is cheap enough to justify the shipping expense (which means the seller isn't making much off of it, in my case).

Yeah it sucks, but at least with photos you can pack around 5 or 6 pretty securely and keep it under 9 oz..

A single magazine or program, that generally sells for no more then a lower end photo, now costs 22 bucks on it's own.

You can't use the cheaper flat envelope rate either, if you are using any sort of rigid material to protect your items from damage.
