I don't think the ISPs would thank you for this, but here's a wildcard 
for you: how much would you be willing to pay per ISO of bandwidth? 
Call it 700MB, at ArachNet or WestNet retail data rates that's about 
$40 per ISO.

Many ISPs allow you unlimited downloads from 00:00 to 07:00, and many 
people don't use all of their bandwidth even during daylight hours, so 
perhaps there's a niche for a bandwidth broker? "We mail you CDs at $5 
per burn plus $1 per hundred meg plus $5 fixed postage and handling on 
any number of CDs". 1500MB would fit on 2 CDs and therefore cost $30. 
Hard disk is cheap, so a big mirror seems appropriate. You could 
discount if the item(s) happened to be mirrored already.

Or maybe one of the ISPs wants to offer this?
