Keep it simple.

I want a big, shiny button that links me to the content I want.

When I click on one of the software, I don't read the blue box. I scroll down and then click on an alternative. Then "what the?! I'm on the same kind of page again!" I scroll down, click on alternative... and repeat this again and again. Oh! Now this page has a big green "download" button! Awesome! click it Oh. It's an ad.

This was my reaction when I first visited the website just now.

Make the main link bigger. If it has a download link, make it big. If it doesn't? Make the website link bigger. I shouldn't have to think. I'm confused.

(Of course, I'm dumbing myself down on purpose when testing websites)
