(and no longer offers a free version of Basecamp).

37signals now ONLY offers products that you must buy.
No more freemium sales model.
As well as they are leaving thousands of Legacy Basecamp customers stranded who don't want to migrate to the new Basecamp product.
They have disabled new signups for Tada list and writeboard. Disabled creating standalone writeboards and new lists... Backpack isn't listed on their site anymore, but seems to work perfectly for me. Though, I'm not sure how useful it is now that most of the functionality seems to exist in Basecamp in some fashion.
I also have plenty "Legacy" Basecamp projects and am not being "stranded", they work fine. Please elaborate.
Which is nice.
Of the above, the only thing I might take issue with is the stranding of legacy Basecamp customers. Why don't they want to migrate? What can 37signals do for them? Answering these questions is important, and if they are already working on this then I see no problems.

In our case, it's the price hike ($29 -> $50).
We're a not-for-profit and have a tough time paying for this stuff; we need to stick with Basecamp "Classic" for the time being.
Nope.
(We're not helping hurricane victims or the like, more a club that only just breaks even running an event once a year.)
But, for teams I manage, we've found Basecamp was actually cheaper than the competition because every tier has unlimited users. That alone makes it cheaper than competing apps that charge per user.
