The packages on the CDs are usually in order of their popularity; The
most used packages being on CD1, second most used on CD2, etc. The whole
reason for popcon (Popularity Contest) is to decide what packages will
go on what CDs.

So the most used/popular packages are on CD/DVD 1 of a Debian CD/DVD
set.
