The USPS doesn't know that you've [not] signed up for GameFly either, that your account is current and that the correct game is in the envelope. The mail is packaged correctly, adheres to postal rules, addressed to you, it has proper postage, so it gets delivered to you. The USPS should be neutral about the suitability of the material being delivered.
(It's like Net Neutrality, except that the spam is legitimately *paid for*.)
Spam is spam, paid for or not. It's unwelcome, and unrequested. The mass distribution of mailers is wrong, and the USPS knows it. They even provide a way to 'Opt-out' of them like spam (why, Yes I am on the list!) Please don't try to justify unwarranted spam it by pointing out that it is legitimately paid for. It is still no more legitimate or welcome than if xxxHackerxxx paid Google mail to mass mail every email addresses Inbox. If they did that most people would pitch a fit.
You do have a point about how to determine what is requested and unrequested though, but in this case your point is moot because where most people draw the line between what is legitimate adverts mailed from the originators location and what is spam, is that it traveled through the USPS system to a single recipient. The stuff that is distributed out of the back of my mailman's truck in large stacks that go into every mailbox along his route isn't one piece of mail to an individual person. If a company want's to mass mail everyone in a city, let them pay the same postage that we have to and print every flyer with a unique address. The USPS would make far more money that way, and maybe they could lower the price of the stamp (yeah right). Don't even get me started on the waste of trees for that matter.
