Those links make it seem like Trajan is a linotype font when in fact it's an Adobe Original and one of my all time favorites. It's probably adobe's fault for not licensing to myfonts.com

It is a beautiful font and I've used it a lot but it has become so ubiquitous (every other movie poster you see) that I've retired it for awhile, personally that is.

Similar to Trajan but less used and abused are Cresci and La Gioconda which is based on Cresci but includes lower case
