or you could try searching for "free as in beer" or "free as in speech" for things under which the open source blanket doesn't cover.Perhaps these keywords could be taken up by anyone offering anything free as in fonts...
@stuffhappens: The keyword being "quality", not "free"... This website actually offers USABLE fonts that you can use for projects and essays - unlike the 'cool ones' like coca cola and disney that you won't ever use, unless you're a coca cola or disney fanboy that is...
uh.....well i recently downloaded a coca cola font called "loki cola" but when i try and use it on microsoft word.......the font shows as a font similar to ariel rather than the coca cola font......is there anyone that can help me with why that happens??

One of my favorite fonts is Gotham ( <a class="user" href="http://typography.com/catalog/gotham/index.html">http://typography.com/catalog/gotham/index.html</a> ). But it is priced at $200-$500. Why is this? Is there some other way to find this font or something similar to it?_

This one was on the front page not long ago:<a class="user" href="http://betterfonts.com/">http://betterfonts.com/</a>The interface kicks ass, you can preview any text you want, and it's free.

I didn't take his comment to mean he wanted to steal it. But as a professional designer, I agree with you.
