Why would I waste money on winRAR when 7zip is open source and free right there?

It's really sad honestly, there's so many alternatives to WinRAR and no one dares uses them.

Because winrar let’s you use it for free, it’s basically the best tactic to let your software stick.

Every other worthwhile one is also free and does not prompt you for purchase.
