Jason - I don't know you, but you're making a big mistake by constantly referring to his service as 'free'. It isn't free, it's paid for. From a customer perspective, you should consider his account as 'paid in full'.

I completely understand that he's 'getting a great deal', and that he isn't currently paying you anything, and that he may well have lasted as a customer longer than you expected, but your company offered lifetime service for a fixed cost, and he bought it. As I understand it, this was to bootstrap your later efforts.

To constantly demean his position is as insulting to him as it is to your integrity. While you may feel like you're in the right here, I can guarantee that you've lost at least one potential customer, because I will not be using Joyent. I'm guessing that running potential customers away isn't your intent here so please, don't do yourself any further harm.
