WinRAR And The Infinite 40-Day Trial

[@Taima]

Lol, I've been through that. It's more inconvenient than anything, since you gotta download the "trial," use it to extract the pirated one, uninstall the old one, and use the new one. Or you might be able to just drop that registration file in your trial version. Never tried. But I think I've been guilted into buying it after all these years.

John Mcaffe did a similar thing with the Mcaffe Anti-virus. He made it free to use for personal users, however businesses had to play a license. His bet was that some people would install it on their work computers and then the businesses, in fear of having to pay a larger sum for having an illegal software, would pay the license fee. Turns out he was right, this is a very good move.

[@fatfuck2384]

That explains why I have no viruses despite not buying the license for over a year

[@KuraIthys]

This is also the model of a bunch of companies. Avira for instance has a 'free' edition which has less features, but overall the main thing is it's terms of use say it's for 'personal, home use only' There's a ton of software doing this. With antivirus it kinda makes sense. Not only do you now have built-in windows antivirus anyway... But home users tend to be reluctant to pay for such things. But much like with viruses in the real world, every unprotected system in the world increases the chances of these infections spreading. So an antivirus company providing 'free' versions to home users helps keep viruses under control in general... Which, I guess doesn't directly benefit their bottom line, but it doesn't hurt their reputation to be seen to be providing a public service...

I have to hand it to them. That's a great business model, and dare I say one of the most "fair" there is. The big businesses will buy licenses because they have to maintain certain legalities; the home user would most likely never run in to a situation where not buying the license is noticed by or given any importance from any regulatory agency, so it would be asinine to put a hard stop once day 40 is over. So really, everyone wins. The businesses can afford numerous licenses, the devs make their profit and the private home user still gets to benefit. That seems pretty cool to me.

[@calvinfoo]

I wish all software licenses are like this. Anyway, I love WinRAR and I hate WinZIP. Back in the days when Internet are not common, before year 2000, transferring data from one to another is a painful process. We have to compress and copy the files to multiple diskettes and pass the files around. if use WinZIP, you have to zip and insert the each diskette to floppy drive. Not only the process is painfully slow, also not reliable; if one of the diskette corrupted, there goes the entire set of Zip file. You have to restart everything. If without labelling the number in the disk, you are practically unable to know the zip diskette sequence WinRAR has an advantage that I really love. You can RAR all and auto split into 1.44mb per file automatically on the hard disk first. And each file will have number proper sequential format. Just copy each file to each diskette. If any of the file is damaged, you only need to recopy that damaged file from hard disk. Not restart everything.

[@afia_begum_chowdhury]

you still don't have those problems, do you?

[@Animessam]

Ya man diskettes were not reliable at all .. with every disk you pray it works .. Somehow the only diskette that didn't get corrupted is the Win98 boot Diskette .. !! Also I used winrar later to split big games on CDs which were supposed to be on DVDs, because I didn't have a DVD-RW .. good days ..

[@AnishMurthy1297]

The answer is age. Back when the program first released, this was a very common practice, to distribute demos and trials of nearly every program and game on the market. Free to use software as we know it only started quite recently. TeamViewer is one of these free to use software, but back when WinRAR released, all software was often trial software. Doing this let it blend in better but also making its trial period message more believable. Hence increased sales. Since then, WinRAR hasn't really changed much. It's mostly the same program apart from new algorithms and methods of zipping.
