Product Description:

1st Choice FTPPro looks and feels just like Windows Explorer, except you can also transfer files to and from FTP sites. You won't have to learn any new commands. Simply drag files from your local computer to the remote server. Unlike other FTP programs, you won't have to perform a directory transfer in multiple steps. ALL of the files and folders contained in any directory can be Copied or Deleted in just one operation. You can minimize FTPPro while file transfers are taking place, so you can perform other tasks on your computer while you are waiting.

Could someone please explain to me why it is that developers just don't seem to comprehend what the word "freeware" means?

Webster.com says it is "software that is available for use at no cost or for a nominal usually voluntary fee."

The Jargon File simply calls it "free software."

Free, as in no charge. Not now, not after an evaluation period, not after a certain number of uses, not ever. This outfit can't even decide on how they want to do that: part of the EULA says 14 days, elsewhere it says three uses.

Software (coincidentally, this software) which turns out to cost $95 if you want to use it more than three times IS NOT FREEWARE! $95 is hardly nominal, and, according to the EULA, certainly isn't voluntary.

Personally, I think it's time that VersionTracker take issue with developers who post false descriptions of their software. Put up a warning banner for every piece of software they list until they get the hint.
