OK.  I think I found what I read some months ago.  From the jigdo site:

---------
Even if you want to download the stable ISO images, they still get 
updated every few months. Downloading the ISO images will give you 
up-to-date images for a few months, but every time a new revision of 
Debian stable is released, you'll need to go through the painful process 
of downloading the entire ISO set from scratch. This is not a good use 
of your time and the mirror's resources.
---------

So it looks like I've done everything correct, its just as you say, the 
images are not updated very often.
