Yes the dl's are free, just like debian you can apt-get from their
servers
I've been using Progeny a few months and like it alot. In that time
I've loaded several packages from potato/woody/sid and a few from
some "unofficial" sites. As well as making my own debs from dl'd
source tarballs.
I've never had any trouble using a .deb from debian.org.
Never had any trouble from creating my own .debs
and only once did I run to a problem with an unofficial deb package.
It broke Mozilla 9.0 I think....a week later I used apt-get
to install Mozilla 9.1 from Progeny and all was fixed and running
smoothly.
I'd recommend giving Progeny a look. I think it's great.
