If you can't download it, buy it from one of the CD providers.

Note: You should only have to pay for the copying and the disc, so an
acceptable charge should be minimal.

Have to disagree with the last statement (that you should only have to pay for the copying and the disk) Does this imply that the person supplying the CD is not allowed to make a profit, in your mind? If so, why would he/she go to the trouble of promoting the product, making copies of the CD, taking them to be mailed, etc.?

We might all have our own idea of what a "fair" profit is, but I would contend that a person can be very reputable, provide a service for people with slow-speed connections, and still make a fair profit, without being made to feel that they're doing something unethical.

(I'm not in the business of supplying OpenOffice CDs, so I have no personal interest in this topic.)
