What Is Shareware?

Shareware distribution gives users a chance to try software before 
buying it.  If you try a Shareware program and continue using it, you 
are expected to register.  Individual programs differ in detail -- some 
request registration while others require it, some specify a maximum 
trial period.  With registration, you get anything from the simple right 
to continue using the software to an updated program with printed manual.

Copyright laws apply to both Shareware and commercial software, and the 
copyright holder retains all rights, with a few specific exceptions as 
stated below.  Shareware authors are accomplished programmers, just like 
commercial programmers, and the programs are of comparable quality.  (in 
both cases there are good programs and bad ones!)  The main difference is 
in the method of distribution.  The author specifically grants the right to 
copy and distribute the software, either to all and sundry or to a specific 
group.  For example, some authors require written permission before a 
commercial disk vendor may copy their Shareware.

Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software.  You should find 
software that suits you needs and pocketbook, whether it's commercial or 
Shareware.  The Shareware system makes fitting your needs easier, because 
you can try before you buy.  And because the overhead is low, prices are low 
also.  Shareware has the ultimate money-back guarantee -- if you don't use the 
product, you don't pay for it.

different persons at the same time.
