Correct, DVDs are no longer being produced. I forget what version of z/OS they did that. z/OS V1.13 may be the last - but I am not sure.
I would recommend getting MOZILLA browser and install the addin - DOWNTHEMALL. It is very fast to down load anything from the web. I use it to download all of the IBM Manuals I want. I think I downloaded 678 PDFs from IBM in about 10 mins maybe 20 mins.
