94 of the best priceless Software

Peter note: the original article named 94 free software that is better than paid software. I did not fully agree after reading the full text, so I did not follow the original title.

However, as free software, they are definitely the best, and some of the software features I have been searching for a long time. Now they have implemented these features, such as unlocker's unrecoverable files, and they are free of charge.

In addition, it should be noted that this is a translation, listing basically foreign products except flashget. In fact, there are also a lot of free software in China, and it is doing well. You can also pay attention to it.
