Need a Synonym for Freeware Licensing by Augment_Compass 2009-05-08 05:06:46
Does anyone out there have a good thesaurus?
I'm writing a spread sheet about on site software and one of the columns is 'License'. What would be a good one or two word term used to describe the license for applications like IE, adobe flash, adobe reader. They are freely distributed but not open source or shareware and the guys here don't like using term freeware.

Thanks all!
cheers
