If you were rich, would you still use as much free software?

Post by froggyboy604 »

I probably won't spend as much time going on freeware sites, and just buy my software at Best Buy or directly from the makers website to install on my computer.

I buy a paid antivirus program since paid antivirus programs seem to offer more features, and have better technical support vs free antivirus which only have forums, but no phone support.

I also buy better photo editing software since Gimp is not the most user friendly image editor I used.

I buy better video editing software since Windows Movie Maker don't have as many cool effects, and video editing features compared to many paid video editing software.

I'll still use free programs like Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, and other browsers since paying for web browsers is not worth it. I also will refuse to pay for instant messaging software since MSN, AIM, YIM, Skype are all free and work well.

I'd stick to free browsers, but I would go out and buy the best protection software.

I probably buy the best antivirus as well. Plus, get more into PC gaming and buy a ton of Computer games for my computer, so I have something to play instead of minesweeper, Solitaire, etc.
