So the first software will be a lightweight video converter, the Simple Video Converter. Maybe most of you never heard of this software, but it doesn't matter. All you need to know is it's small in size and you don't have to pay!
It is an open source software, you will never asked to pay for it. If someone is trying to sell a similar software to you, it is a scam! Do not give money to them. The software is a project hosted by SourceForge.net.
The project team describe it as:

It is true that there is more powerful software like this out there, but the really advantage of this software itself is the small size and open source. You don't have to pay or use any crack/activator to get the full feature ;-).
Enjoy your software :-). Download it here. But you must fill a simple survey in exchange for the money. It just a survey, and it won't take long :-). Thank you.
