Michael, correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe using FedEx, UPS or any other private courier would prevent the government from charging a distributor with interstate transport of obscene materials, either...? Using a private courier *might* remove a couple of charging options for the prosecutor specifically relating to using the US mail to transport obscene materials, but I believe they can indict you for interstate transport regardless of whether you use the USPS or some other form of courier. Unless I'm mistaken, you could pack the DVDs in a truck, drive them to another state and hand them directly to the customer -- and doing so would still be 'interstate transport' of the material... right?
Well it was already answered, but yes interstate transport is just that... it doesn't matter how or who transports it.
