It's the same with GPLed software. If you download it directly onto a DVD, you 
have first-sale rights on the DVD. If you download it to hard disk and then 
make a copy to a DVD, you can distribute that DVD only under terms of the GPL.

What are the legal differences in a) downloading directly to a DVD and/or b) downloading to the hard drive and then copying to a DVD. Please quote all relevant legislation in any jurisdiction..
