There are two common motivations to develop a free program. One is that there is no program to do the job. Unfortunately, accepting the use of a nonfree program eliminates that motivation. The other is the will to be free, which motivates people to write free replacements for nonfree programs. In cases like these, that motive is the only one that can do the job. Simply by using a new and unfinished free replacement, before it technically compares with the nonfree model, you can help encourage the free developers to persevere until it becomes superior.
