Free Softwares at www.giveawayoftheday.com

Who in this world doesn’t want to get licensed original softwares for free. But alas, in this world of ego, selfishness and cruelty, some people have still found out a way to make money giving free softwares.
The business model of www.giveawayoftheday.com is a win win solution for both publishers and clients. Giveawayoftheday quotes as saying ” Basically, every day we nominate one software title that will be a Giveaway title of that day. The software will be available for download for 24 hours (or more, if agreed by software publisher) and that software will be absolutely free. That means - not a trial, not a limited version - but a registered and legal version of the software will be free for our visitors*.”
and
“We will pay the software publisher for the Giveaway license, and our visitors will only receive those after downloading a special verification program and agreeing to the Terms and Conditions, thus protecting software publishers’ interests and making our initiative beneficial for both clients and publishing companies.
We believe that Giveaway of the day will allow both publishers and clients to meet each other and win together with our initiative.”
