I'm going to make a flying assumption that you don't like the idea of downloading eight CDs worth of data, and I don't blame you. Debian discourages downloading more than you need, especially considering CD images are a real drain of resources for the mirrors. http://www.debian.org/CD/ Your CD options are ordered according to preference, the higher on the list, the more highly recommended it is.

Do you have network access where you are going to be installing Debian? If so, then the question isn't so much "What's on the disks?" but rather "How should I obtain a better CD set?" You're doing it the right way if the systems you are installing on has no network access. If they do have network access, the full CD set is not the best method, try this instead: http://www.debian.org/CD/netinst/ -- .''`.
