As far as I know, they pulled the plug on new downloads at this moment in time. RC will be out for testing at the start of May I heard. Or you can find it elsewhere on the tinterweb by using a well known search engine surely?

it's still illegal, since it's not officially out
and I don't think that all the members of this thread are OEM companies

can't ask things like that

I think bledd is trying to tell us something

Umm, although they have pulled the download from their own site, they released the files freely to the public domain. It's not illegal to acquire it elsewhere if you have a key, it's just against forum rules to mention these places due to the other content available there.

Check the file hashes and make sure you don't have a duffer.
