Which other distro still offers this ? One may question the ergonomic quality of a set of 13 DVDs as on: https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/8.7.1/amd64/jigdo-dvd/ But for example volume 1 of the 3 ISOs on https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/8.7.1/amd64/jigdo-bd/ gives you the equivalent of 5 DVDs on one medium. To be put on BD medium or on e.g. a 32 GB USB stick. Have a nice day :) Thomas
