Wait a minute, guys, let's go back and review something.

Freeware -> completely free software

Shareware -> fully-enabled software which can be used unrestricted without any charge, but the author requests if you like the program you pay a small fee (NOT REQUIRED).

Payware (commercial) -> software which requires a payment to use it. You can find demo or time-limited versions, but you have to purchase it to use it.

This is how these names originated. Make sure you are classifying and advertising your software correctly.
