Default Blu-ray movie weights

So I do not have a scale but I'm trying to find out the weight of a regular blu-ray movie. I've been told it's about 4 oz...can someone confirm this?

What about a blu-ray with multiple discs such as Planet Earth?

Any website that gives this info? Couldn't find it on Amazon.

Thanks

We're going to need a pot head to the front of the class for a second please.

Any volunteers?


edit: There ain't no way a disc weighs a quarter pound. I don't think it would be close w/ the case either.

by the time you add in a bubble mailer it comes to 3.6 ounces so it's rounded up to 4 ounces for shipping weight. comes to $1.68 without Delivery confirmation

About 6 ounces?
