Alternative Software

I love AlternativeTo and open source software, but I don't believe in only open source. If I don't believe in only open source, why the name? While I prefer open source software, not every piece of software can be or should be open source. People need options. That's why I love AlternativeTo - it's all about giving people options! A little about me: In my free time, I like to find new software to add to AlternativeTo and play the drums.
