+1 to Randall marketing materials are better than Dvds as many LoCos have
customs problems to pass the Dvds as the customs thinks we are going to
sell them and dont let it inside the country.
And nowadays get your iso from internet is quite easy, Dvds end up in a
collection of Dvds from Ubuntu instead of install and pass the Dvd
