Please explain the choices available for managing downloads

well, i've just checked cnet and found the downloads are direct. however, a 
similar site, brothersoft.com, does use a download manager, stating as follows:

The program you want to download will be downloaded through Brothersoft 
Downloader, making the download process much faster, showing a progress bar and 
ensuring the program is virus-free

the brothersoft downloader's privacy policy link redirects here:

http://www.conduit.com/privacy/conduitpoweredapplication

so, it's quite possible that some conduit's trash would be bundled. so, that 
may be not cnet to blame but the particular program's developer who chose to 
make fundrising through conduit-sponsored distribution.

as for managing downloads, i used to be happy with download master, or there is 
a program 'free download manager' and thousands more. however, today, with an 
acceptable-quality internet connection, i'm quite satisfied with my browser's 
built-in download manager.
