        The extra CD is not part of Debian. That CD is likely to be
 add-on stuff provided by the vendor. Debian has no control over, and
 can't be held responsible for for these add-ons.

        I hope the official Debian distribution shall be less than 6
 CD's, but who knows? But then, you still won't have the kinds of
 things normally found in extra CD's that vendors provide as an
 add-on.
