No they are not "available only in proprietary formats", check the source:

<video id="slplayer_jwplayer_video" x-webkit-airplay="allow"
style="display: block; opacity: 1; width: 667px; height: 500px; top:
0px; left: 0px; z-index: 1; margin: auto; position: absolute;
transform: scale(1.01, 1) translate(0px, 0px);"

The fact that the download mechanism doesn't offer .webm is just an
oversight that we'll get fixed.
