freeware

Similar to shareware, freeware is software that is distributed with no requirement for a license or under the GPL (GNU Public License) - that is, legally free software.
Note that this is different than warez; free versions of commercial software.

Windows XP is commercial software, but most versions of Linux are freeware.
