8 DVDs? I only ever download the latest netinst image (180Mb) from
http://www.debian.org/distrib/netinst and then install anything and everything
else from mirrors. The sources I use are:
deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main contrib non-free
deb http://mirror.linux.org.au/debian stable main non-free contrib
deb http://mirror.linux.org.au/debian testing main non-free contrib
deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org testing main
but YMMV
Cheers
