There are multiple ways iby which you can download data including the above two.
>>VF page with contentType.
>>Apex class.
>>Workbench.
>>Dataloader.
>>Out of the box functionality data export
>> Through reports. [You can create a report and after that you can download]
Is there a specific reason why you don't want to use Data loader or the ContentType?.
