You already have the freedom, you can always switch to the GPLed license. Only you do not get supplementary services that way.
Which would be interesting to know why. They could offer the same services for the same price for the GPLed version. Their current method says: Support only for the proprietary version. And exactly that is what I do not like about this. Support and other supplementary services should be independent of the license. IMHO though.
In my opinion it is only a marketing move to sell services, nothing freedom reducing.
In that case they would offer the same services for the GPLed version - which they do not do. It is more than a marketimg move. It is saying GPLed is without anything.
