3CDs instead of 4

I haven't bought a 650MB CD-R in a long time.  I always make sure I've
got the 700MB CD-R.  I do agree on the idea of 700MB ISOs.  I don't
think a lot of people use 650MB CDs anymore.  I hate to toy with the
idea of downloading 4 ISOs one-after-another.  As time goes on the
requirements of disk space and the like of an OS increase.  With this,
you should also take into account people now have fast CD-RWs and most
people don't buy the 650MB CDs.
