Default Win 7 SP1 iso from Digital River?

I bought a Windows 7 Pro license with the student discount some time ago from Digital River. Obviously, the disk image I downloaded then had no SP1, I'm going to reformat this week and was wondering if Digital River has an updated Win 7 image with SP1?

I'm not sure re: Digital River offering SP1 downloads.

You can use http://www.rt7lite.com/ and slipstream SP1 / rebuild your own dvd. It's easy and works great! (use v2.60 beta for SP1 slipstream_ability)

Use a torrent, works awesome, that's what I've done for Vista and now 7. It's not like you're stealing, you legally own Windows 7...

Yeah I've slipstreamed the service pack to my original windows iso. I just need to wait until Firefox 4 is released so everything is nice and tidy when I install.

If it came from a reputable source I would, but I don't trust torrented software (except Linux), especially an OS.
