Ftp at 56K is probably *possible* but not worth it, not recommended,
and your ISP would probably not want you to.  It would require about
3-4 days to download all of it, and with that type of time fram you
will probably have all kinds of data errors.  Plus, that means
tying up your phone line for 4 days unless you have a dedicated phone 
connection.
It would be faster and probably worth the $10 bucks including shipping
that it would cost to buy it from www.lsl.com or cheapbytes or something.
