free vs paid for games/software

to continue the debate....

i'd take firefox over internet explorer anyday.

as far as software goes - ccleaner to get rid of the junk on your hard drive is the best software i've come across... it's free.

for rip and burn on dvds try ripit4me - works a treat and it's free.

not going to type a long list, tho i could. thats just 2 to start.

my point is that there is a lot of open source/free software out there that is at least as good and often better than the commercial equivilant.

Lol I was too general.... I meant mostly for Computer Games..... in any general discussion it's easy to find chinks in its armor.... so i concede that lots of free ware is better then payed for software, but when it comes to video games Paid for games are better then free game at least 80% of the time when it comes to patches, customer services and dealing with issues..
