Probably somebody knows already about this.It is a cool site to visit offering every day for free licensed software you'd have to buy otherwise!

http://www.giveawayoftheday .com/

=== Why they are doin this?====
Giveaway of the day is a win-win solution for both publishers and clients
The idea behind this initiative is that many sites and publishers offer trial downloads; but only we offer giveaway downloads. What does that mean?
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*.
The software product will be presented in its full functionality, without any limitations save for those mentioned in Terms and Conditions.

Here is a comment from CNET:

Who says there's no such thing as a free lunch? Giveaway of the Day gives you a different commercial software application, free of charge, every day. Yes, there's a catch, but it's a simple one: each program is made available for only 24 hours, and you have to install it the day you download it.

Let me clarify that: The software doesn't expire after 24 hours. Rather, you have a one-day window in which to download it and install it. But once that's done, it's yours to keep forever (or at least until you reformat your hard drive).

Don't expect to find Quicken or Microsoft Office here; the selection consists mostly of utilities, security tools, DVD rippers, and the like. Some of it's junk, but there are some gems--and you definitely can't beat the price. If you want to know whether the day's program is worth the download, click the "Proceed to download page" link and check readers' ratings and comments, which are usually copious.

While you're at it, head to Game Giveaway of the Day: same deal, all games.
