I felt the same way until I realized that downloading clojure straight from the web page was pretty much me "doing it wrong" or attempting to use the "custom install" that I wasn't ready to do yet (not knowing what I was doing).
Leiningen is the "easy" way to get clojure, contrib, everything else, plus properly setup your app to start.

Rich/Core This is WAY TOO MUCH WORK. The first entries on the download page should be just .JARs, and then below that you could have the zip files you have now.
