You don't have to buy it.
You can use the torrent I posted (in previous post) and dowload it. If you want the full DVD, you'll need to have a DVD burner capable of burning dual layer DVDs. Otherwise, it won't work. The image is over 7gigs and single layer dvds only hold about 4.3gigs. I decided to download the 5 CD (ISO) package and burn to CD for my install. That package is about 3.3gigs total. I started it last night and its about 50% competed. I'm in no rush for it though... so I set my upload slightly faster than normal. My upload ratio as of this AM was 250%. Just giving back to the community. 
If you are unfamiliar with how to use bittorrent... you should read up on it. http://www.bittorrent.com/
Its pretty easy to use. I have also posted (in this thread) about how to increase your download speed to get the maximum transfer rate while not killing your network connection and making email, http, etc. slow for everyone else sharing your broadband connection.
My favorite bittorrent clients are:
BitTornado http://www.bittornado.com/
Azureus http://azureus.sourceforge.net/
Quitmzilla is a firefox extension that gives you stats on how long you have quit smoking, how much money you\'ve saved, how much you haven\'t smoked and recent milestones. Very helpful for people who quit smoking and used to smoke at their computers... Helps out with the urges.
