Installation after RH Support Ends

This is an interesting question for me.  

In a few months RH support for RH 9 ends.  What happens when we may need
to install RH 9 again but the up2date connection is no longer
available.  I would like to be able to update the hundreds of programs
as we have before.  I don't expect RH to be providing that service.  Is
that correct?

If so, I wondered what others on this list will be doing to get an
up-to-date installation.  I have a box set and have downloaded the CD
iso files, but I don't expect the resulting iso generated CD's to be any
different from the box set.  

One could download the latest RPMs from RH Network, all 1300 plus.  Is
their a way to use up2date to recognize these RPMs (perhaps on a DVD) to
update the new installation or does one have to update each RPM or group
of RPMs individually?
