Erm ... this is a respin with Everything in it. Multiple DVD images.
Not the single image install disc you're looking at.

Also, this is NOT the same as jigdo; it's not just a "download
accelerator". It builds the image from pieces which it downloads, then
assembles the ISO image; not just by fetching byte ranges of the same
URL from multiple sources.

That's of no use to him, as he's already observed, hence his questions.
