Also, Ubuntu Pro is free for the first five devices and they just rolled it out so this may just be an error.
EDIT: It looks like at least Ansible isn't in Ubuntu's main repo, it's in Universe...
tl;dr: Canonical isn't keeping security updates hostage. Ubuntu Pro covers Universe packages, which weren't previously covered by official security updates. All the packages in main still get the same security updates as before without requiring Ubuntu Pro.
