Fedora releases are also available via Jigdo.

Jigdo is a distribution method which can improve the speed of obtaining the installation ISO images.

Instead of waiting for torrent downloads to complete, Jigdo seeks the fastest mirrors it can find via the Fedora Project Mirror Manager infrastructure, and downloads the bits it needs from these mirrors. To optimize seeking these bits, you can tell Jigdo to scan a DVD or CD you already have, and cut down on redundant downloads.
