Debian (which has 8CDs) puts what most people se on the first cd, and
then puts more and more obscure things on later CDs, so that most people
only need the first or maybe second CD.  That is how a smart person
would organize it.  No need to force people to download all the CDs
because the installer is on CD1 and all the useful stuff you want is
somewhere else.
