Software types available for download could be divided into: Freeware, Shareware, and Payware (aka Commercial Software). Freeware is just what it sounds like - it is free, but typically unsupported. Shareware obliges the user to pay after some trial period or to gain additional functionality. Shareware is more often supported by the person or organization that created it although a lot of shareware has been posted that is later abandoned by the developer(s). Payware is available for download from commercial entities that require payment up front before you are able to download it. It is usually supported by the developer(s). It differs from buying software in a brick-and-mortar store only in the means of delivery and accompanying hard copies of documentation.
