I don't recall if I pointed you at this site page before or not. I have
others. But it just about does not get more clear than this. Done by
Fedora people, for Fedora people, to download Fedora isos.


Using Jigdo to Download Re-Spin ISOs
http://fedorasolved.org/post-install-solutions/jigdo/


This site gives very good, clear instructions. They were for me. And, as
an experiment, I just did this again while running Windows XP Pro. That
was interesting because there are next to no instructions for that way.
And none of the Linux instructions 'work' in the Windows jigdo. They are
all actually writen for Debian isos and had to be edited.

And yes I have done this before now. Several times. Just for giggles and
grins. I have also, somewhere, the necessary rsync CLI that will let you
 'change' a rc1 beta to a rc2 beta iso by just 'diffing' the changed
parts of the contents between the two.
