It's good to hear a counter-point to the freemium pressure. Freemium has its place, as the article notes properly, but it's not for everyone. It's about time people speak out :-)

Is it really necessary to hear a counterpoint?

The debate has mostly been around whether or not it is a viable business model, not whether or not it is always the best business model.

It is for me, and has been for the better part of a decade now, but I have to admit that it gets harder and harder to squeeze the lemon as time goes by. Competition is fierce, the only thing that I figure that keeps us going is customer loyalty.
