Actually, it reminded me of an example from an audiobook I listened to a few months ago about the Freemium model.
There was an example of one of the first Gillette's marketing campaigns. Basically, they gave away blades for free but to use them you had to buy a razor.
That example is definitely not similar to the StatSheet model. I'm talking about selling pieces of a free web site. You can't use the razor without buying the blades.

I don't see anything new here.
