Version: WavePad Free Edition 3.05
Pros: I've always used Wavepad to cut and edit songs but not for extended use. It is very small, and useful when trying to simply edit things instead of using a huge program to do the job. It views quite an amount of file types, and also not resource hogging.
Cons: Although it's very good, for some reason, every few weeks it would say my trial expired, however after closing the notification for expiration window, it simply works again. The first time I laid eyes on this program, it said "free", and now it's not free anymore? I'm a bit confused.

Version: WavePad Free Edition 3.02
Pros: It is a mediocre editor and con convert any audio file into any audio file
Cons: Well it is just a trial, but you can always redownload it.
Also when it converts the songs sometimes they do not work. And the editing is just very basic

"A good editor but it doesn't save files!"
Pros: This is a good audio editor with plenty of features for basic digital sound editing.
Cons: File saves are disabled. My experience trying WavePad irked me because; (1) it's listed as having no limitations, (2) the installation process fails to mention saves are disabled, and (3) I spent an hour trying WordPad but I lost all my work after being unable to save. WavePad should be listed as a trial version and changed to either warn the user or allow at least a few files to be saved. I wanted a sound editor that works as described, not one that wastes my time, so I'll be looking elsewhere.

Version: WavePad Free Edition 3.12
Pros: Gave me a clue to search DOWNLOAD.COM for audio tools and found many truly free audio utilities. Better than this trivia nag.
Cons: If you take pity and buy the utility, you HAVE to pay for every bug fix. You HAVE to pay for every minor release as well. And no difference between free and paid versions. I warned ya!
