Continuing this quaint convention(?) of top-posting,

TO: The O.P. -- "mcclnx"

My usual feeling is that there are many bittorrent clients out there 
(AAMOF Ktorrent is a really nice GUI that is YUMmable) and direct 
downloads are rude.  However, some folks may have restrictions on what 
they can do and how they can do it. Therefore, to provide the answer you 
were looking for, go to
http://www.centos.org/modules/tinycontent/index.php?id=30  and look at 
the 6th column, "Direct DVD Downloads".  Any of the sites with a "yes" 
in that column should be able to send you the DVD iso without your 
having to use a torrent.

BUT... A torrent will almost always be faster, no matter how big the 
pipe, error-checking and resume following an error is superior.  AND it 
just kinda shows a little respect to bow to the wishes of the folks who 
are footing the bill.
