Linda, I suggest you read the forum guidelines. It is not permitted to give specific information on retailers breaking street dates. You can say you got a title early, just not where, which pretty much excludes you from talking about it in this thread. There were some ugly situations some time back, threatened legal action and such which resulted in this rule.
For myself, I have always been satisfied with the deliveries from DDD. I should point out I have never bought new releases from them, though. I generally receive my discs within a week of ordering. Even during the last sale I got sood service. About half the title I ordered were out of stock, but I had them all within a couple weeks, which was faster than they said it would take. They also kept me updated on expected arrival times.
4th class and Media Mail are the same thing. Something to remember is that it can be delayed if the USPS gets too busy, since media mail has low priority. On the other hand, it is often as fast as 1st class. Once I had a DVD coming from buy.com which was shipped Priority (supposedly better than 1st class) with tracking and it took about 6 weeks, so you never know. It's not all up to the shipper.
