Uh, I don't know where you live, but around here, there wouldn't
be any comparison at all.  I could probably make the call
long-distance and it would still be cheaper to download it.  And
that's not even taking the exchange rate into account, which is
absolutely murder now-a-days.

Not to discourage anyone from buying the CD (esp. when all
profits go to FreeBSD.ORG! :), but I personally hold no grudges
against someone who forgoes buying every new CD and downloads it
instead.  Heck, even MS provides some of its upgrades (aka.
bugfixes) for free download.
