The total file count is 140,232 for 208GB after deduplication. The
total download took about 27 hours with a 50Gbps connection.

If you've never dabbled in Fedora Beta releases, most of the files have
date/time stamps in the names. For example, the Fedora 32 Beta
Workstation Live DVD ISO file is named:

Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-32-20200213.n.0.iso

As the component and collective ISO images change due to bug fixes or
whatever, all date/time stamps are updated almost every day. If you're
game, you can grab the Live DVD ISO image of your choice and upgrade
your fully-updated Fedora 31 system in-place. Of course, it would be
wise to back up your /home directory and any other files you've added
since your installation. If the Fedora 32 Beta burps, you can usually
get a fixed rpm the next day.
