I was an early user, and one day I went to read my feeds, only to be greeted with very curt "trial expired" screen.
That was the first indication of any form I'd had the service was going pay-to-play.
I wasn't upset, but I could see how someone would be -- it was just a very abrupt, almost rude, way to communicate the change.
(Caveat: All from memory. Memory is unreliable, so take w/ salt.)
