I believe it didn't work because I only got 500 of 700 MB for each CD.  I
don't know why, but my FTP program said they were done at that point.

I tried bittorrent and have to strongly discourage others from using it.
Not only did it freeze my system when using firefox, but it downloads at
about 18KB/s compared to 500KB/s from the FTP I am currently using.
