Best way to download Adobe CS Master Collection 5.5?

Question

I purchased adobe cs5.5 master collection a year or two ago. It was shipped to me from the US to where I live in Germany by a friend, but the discs were stopped by customs and sent back. Not because of anything illegal at all, but because German customs is the worst thing in the world. They stop EVERYTHING, and if you dont go to the office (which is a 2 hour trip for me) within 1 week, they ship it back.
Anyways, I legally own cs 5.5, and have my serial number, but I dont have any discs due to the above story. Now it used to be easy to download a trial version and enter my serial number but that is no longer possible. I have found some ways or locations for the 5.5 gigabyte file, but downloading a file this big in your browser download queue seems to be an exercise in frustration. If one thing fails, the whole download is lost.
Any suggestions? I would love to have a LEGAL/non-cracked ISO of either the full version or the trial, so I dont have to go looking again if i need it in the future and can just burn a disc or two with the whole thing on it.
It seems quite ridiculous that in this modern age, when you spend 2,000+ dollars on a piece of software, a year later that software is no longer available for digital download.
NOTE: To any support people who will give me a download deeplink. I am trying this now, and as I wrote above, downloading 5.5gb in a browser is actually quite difficult.

A “digital download” or "deep link" is what is provided on that download page.  An ISO would likely be much larger because it wouldn’t be compressed.
The problem you’re having is your unreliable/slow internet connection.
What I’d suggest is to use an application that will allow resuming a download after a broken connection.  The application I am currently using to download the 5GB file is called “Free Download Manager”.  I have it set to integrate with IE11 and I can right-click on the 5GB link and choose Download with Free Download Manager from the context menu in the browser and it is successfully downloading with multiple connections to maximize my internet bandwidth usage and there is an indication that says Resume Support: Yes for that server so I expect if something did happen to the connection I could resume the download at a later time without having to restart all over again.  Due to the Adobe authorization cookie requirements it does not work to drag-and-drop the link to the FDM’s dropbox, only to right-click the link in the browser and choose to download that way.
FDM is available from here:  http://www.freedownloadmanager.org/download.htm
As with any program like this watch carefully during the install for extra toolbars or other non-necessary things that might be installed, and if you’re particularly paranoid, then scan with ADWCleaner and MalwareBytes and SuperAntiSpyware afterwards.
It’s been so long ago that I installed this software that I don’t actually remember if there was any extraneous junk it tried to install or not, but there hasn’t been an ongoing problem since I do scan with the above mentioned software periodically.
