Though paid programs and applications have a lot of uses, I have always been a fan of free and open source applications as you do not have to pay in order to use them.

Day by day the trend towards using open source application is increasing and users are ignoring commercial softwares as much as possible.

LifeHacker today introduced an app for Windows called WinLibre that will allow you to quickly install multiple open source applications. This will keep you from visiting websites of open source softwares each time you plan to download them and shall allow you to manage the download/install of various free programs through a single interface.

WinLibre not only allows you to download and install free open source software but also enables you to update previous versions of your open source apps in one single go. It will even give you the option to simultaneously download two or more open source applications.

MacLibre is brother version of WinLibre especially designed for Mac computers. This utility is great for those users who install a fresh copy of Windows and then have to download all softwares manually. This shall make the whole process a lot more automated and easy for you.
