Travis,

If / when you can find a jigdo site for the dvd image use jigdo.

After you have downloaded the template and .jigdo for the dvd you can run it 
repeatedly using your cdrom as source with each debian cd in turn.

If your cds and the jigdo dvd are the same revision you will never have to 
download a byte.

Problem is I don't know if the dvd jigdo mirror was ever sorted out.
