No, it isn't. If you installed from CD-ROM, that may be because you
bought a CD-ROM from some CD reseller because your internet connection
is paid for by the minute and you don't want to have to download too
much.

Or you may not have an internet connection at all.

If you don't want the CD-ROM as an install source, it's pretty easy to
edit sources.list and throw out the CD-ROM URI.
