That would depend on what sort of deal you have with your ISP.
Last year I downloaded every package required to update to 7.2 which took
about 5 days. I was also *not* paying per MB then.
This year I ordered the CD's as the update to 8.0 would have cost me around
$200 to download the individual packages. Unless a package is released as a
security update, I no longer download from cooker either.
