I really have no idea to be honest. I don't recall the last time I downloaded a full debian cd. I tend to keep the netboot disk around and whenever I install a new system I run apt-get autoclean and then burn the contents of /var/cache/apt/archives/* to dvd. When I want to install a new system I fire up the netinstallcd and then copy the archives back to /var/cache/apt/archives. Seems to keep the required downloads to a minimum and my cache of archives just grows.. I think 2.2 was the last Debian version I actually downloaded a disc for. Netinstall just works so well in these days of quick connections. So, to answer your question.. I can't. Sorry about that.
