I know that I have many duplicate downloads (particularly Adobe Reader Files) that I would like to trash.
Is there an easier way to find duplicates other than opening them all and comparing them?

You can try Araxis "Find Duplicate Files" in theMac App Store or download a free trial from Araxis.
In unix you can use a combination of ls and diff.
Unfortunately Apple is notorious for creating crippleware, so they have only provided this function in iPhoto and maybe iTunes. There is no easy Finder solution, such as would make sense as part of Smart Folders!
Stupid Apple 😟
