"SHAREWARE" The term shareware (also known as trialware or demoware) refers to proprietary software that is provided to users without payment on a trial basis and is often limited by any combination of functionality, availability or convenience. Shareware is often offered as a download from an Internet website or as a compact disc included with a periodical such as a newspaper or magazine.
The rationale behind shareware is to give buyers the opportunity to use the program and judge its usefulness before purchasing a license for the full version of the software. Firms with superior software thus have an incentive to offer samples, except if their product is already well known, or if they do not want to be listed in direct competition with other products on shareware repositories.
Freeware (from "free" and "software") is computer software that is available for use at no cost or for an optional fee. Software that is commercial is occasionally referred to as payware.

nb: Jadi intinya shareware itu gak gratis, shareware itu cuma semacam software setengah jadi yang di publikasikan dengan fungsionalitas yang setengah juga. Kalau mau yang fungsionalitasnya lengkap ya harus bayar. Freeware itu lah yang 100% gratis. HIDUP FREEWARE... hee :D
