Yep.  Debian doesn't make profits from CD sales -- it relies upon
donations.  Official CD images are created which anyone can download
to create official CDs.  The "official" bit just means the vendor
hasn't modified it.

Many vendors allow you to make a donation alongside your payment for the
CDs.  You can also send donations directly to SPI who will keep the
money on behalf of Debian.
