Found this list on the OISV Forum and thought it might be useful, this is a list of software sites submitted by multiple users recommendations and compiled into one "super list."
Enjoy :)

I was planning to do that by myself, but if we do it together the list will be much better.
I'll start with three sites. Please don't spam. If the Google PR of a site is less than 7 give us a few words why you think it's good. If you could backup your contribution by some sales/download statistics it would be even better.
So I would say:
<code>
1) download.com (PR8)
2) softpedia.com (PR7)
3) sharewareplaza.com ("only" PR6, but they update the listing on a regular basis from your pad file, this is not just some automated crap site that earns only on adsense and like many you can find, they are humans behind it and they are trying to sell the product).
Updated list:
Primary list:
1) download.com (SLOW)
2) freedownloadscenter.com
3) softpedia.com
4) filedudes.com
5) snapfiles.com (Slow listing?)
6) versiontracker.com
7) sofotex
8) sharewareplaza.com (auto updates from you pad file)
9) bluechillies.com
10) softplatz.com
11) softlandmark.com
12) soft32.com (automatic updates from the pad file)
13) shareup.com
14) download3000.com
15) softslist.com
16) sharewareconnection.com
17) fileboost.net
18) filehungry.com
19) downloadready.com
20) pcwin.com
21) bestvistadownloads.com
