Honestly, how much money is made from this feature? I suppose that's hard to quantify, but at least admins could look at the frequency with which the feature is used.
I don't think it's a bad suggestion, I'd just have to look at the numbers before deciding if it should remain paid users only.
What have other people objected to about this?

Well, it's just a numbers issue for me.
And thank you for posting this for discussion.

Maybe LJ should start an a-la-cart features list, so you can just pay for the paid features you want instead of everything you won't use. Like for me, the polls and a bunch of other features I'll never use, but if I could take them off and make my yearly paid time just a little lower that would be cool... though I'm betting there would be a LOT of fiddly code to work with and it's probably not worth the time for LJ staff for a couple of bucks here and there.

then again, if they're having so much trouble making the userpics a la carte, I guess it wouldn't happen.
Even a tickybox when paying for a paid account that asks what features you want?

Also... should the suggestions comm really be the platform for "make paid feature free" suggestions? I don't think it's really the best place to discuss the issue, because it's not technical, it's business oriented. The discussions which tend to occur are not very productive, frequently. I think maybe it could be handled better by having periodic posts in the feedback comm, for example, or polls in news.
