You only need to download the monster image once, and If you try the VM route first, you only need to point the VM setup at the ISO file and it will act like you burned it to a usb drive. If you want to help support them, I think sells preconfigured live boot usb's but I think you would be better served by getting to know the install and partition systems and how to make your own bootable usb from an image. iso files as if they are pretend dvd or bootable usb drives. It works like making a "virtual" version of your computer, right down to a hard drive partition and you "insert". You can also install Linux in a virtual machine like "Virtualbox" in windows to test and learn or choose a distrobution before you make the big switch. yes, and without any of those hassles, and in some cases you can even "dual boot" and keep your windows, though Win10 has been making it tricky due to the way it keeps changing itself to fast boot mode, basically hibernate, leaving the journal in a state that is easy to damage by other systems.but I digress.
