    ...what are you talking about?  To my knowledge, the HD trailers on steampowered.com force you to download Steam (no surprise there, you need said program to install the games, too... if you don't like that, you're on the wrong damn site to buy games), but the normal quality ones play with regular Adobe Flash.

    It sometimes asks me to install Flash too. I think it's because I use Chrome as my main browser, and because Chrome has an "internal" Flash plugin, I never actually run the Adobe Flash updater program anymore-- so the copy of Flash that Steam uses is out-of-date, and Steam whines.

    At least, that's my theory. If steam asks me for Flash, I usually just copy the page URL into Chrome, and it works there.

    That wouldn't surprise me... if I visit steampowered.com, it's through Firefox or Steam's own browser (which uses Webkit for rendering these days.)
