I think I can answer this one. Perhaps, not enough disk space? See,

Easy to bitch, ain't it?
Make an iso-dvd then and provide the space and bandwidth.
I hope they never release a DVD officially, cause it'll mean that ٨٠%
of
what's downloaded then will never ever be used, yet it does use up the
bandwidth on every new release. Stick to windows if you believe that's
a
proper use of resources.
Well, since the OP just wants a DVD version, and not specifically a
version that's too big to fit on a CD, why not just create a DVD iso
that contains just enough to install?
Personally, I wonder why there isn't a ISO image that'll install
FreeBSD somewhat in a Gentoo concept, format the disk(s), download the
source, csup and install from the source(good for someone wanting to
follow -STABLE instead of -RELEASE), install and csup the ports tree,
and good to go.
Anyway, odds are the OP wants to try out PCBSD instead of FreeBSD. I
don't see much purpose in home use live cd's if you don't want a
desktop environment.

Problem with today's modular software: they start with the modules
and never get to the software part.
