What exactly should the contents of the 4 discs of the FC4 install cds (i386) have? I'm looking at the contents (after burning the ISo image) on my Windows XP (haven't installed FC4 yet) and they seem to ALL have the same content! Namely:
SRPMS (folder)
.discinfo
eula.txt
GPL
README
RPM-GPG-KEY
RPM-GPG-KEY-beta
RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora
RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-rawhide
RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-test
RPM-GPG-KEY-rawhide
TRANS.TBL
Is this what it's supposed to have after burning? 'Cause I can't boot with any of the 4 CDs.
Help?!

you downloaded and burned the cd with the source rpms, not the install cds with the binaries; you need these:
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/4/i386/iso/FC4-i386-disc1.iso
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/4/i386/iso/FC4-i386-disc2.iso
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/4/i386/iso/FC4-i386-disc3.iso
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/4/i386/iso/FC4-i386-disc4.iso
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/4/i386/iso/FC4-i386-rescuecd.iso
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/4/i386/iso/SHA1SUM
otherwise, the same via bittorrent:
http://torrent.fedoraproject.org/stentz-binary-i386.torrent
These are all for the cds: on the fedora site you will find the link for the DVD version

Oh man... I had to pay someone to download and burn these for me, and I sent him the wrong URLs. Grrrr. Will I be able to use these source rpms?

I mean, will I have any use for them, even after I've downloaded and installed the proper files?

You now have the source code to Fedora Core. You could possibly recompile the entire distro when you get it running, but then there's no point.
