Is this how Adobe helps Flash users to keep up to date? It is forcing home users with multiple machines (and/or browser platforms) to go through the tedious Adobe Downloader process on each one of them. But no money in freeware, right? And it increases the chance of undesirable bloatware coming along for the ride if we forget to uncheck those boxes before downloading the downloader.
If the automatic updater was effective in ensuring prompt updating of Flash when a new security update becomes available, it wouldn't matter but the automatic updater sometimes takes several days leaving users vulnerable to Flash exploits for an unconscionable time.
Adobe high-ups are clearly not in touch with reality. Flash is NOT freeware. Flash is the necessary means of viewing the content of providers who have paid Adobe handsomely for its Flash authoring tools. No Flash player, no need for Adobe Flash authoring tools.

This does NOT include the SCUP catalog, or the URL for enterprise customers that have "licensed " Flash Player, correct?

No, this does not include enterprise customers that have licensed Flash Player, however, there will be some changes to how enterprise customers access the distribution page. Please review the FAQ Upcoming Flash Player Distribution Changes FAQ. Please note that the new page is not yet available. It was anticipated to be available this week, however, due to some last minute issues the page is not yet live. The FAQ will be updated once the page is live.

Hi wibble98765,
The page that is being disabled is for enterprise customers who license Flash Player, as stated on the page.
