For example, Sublime Text 2. It's free but, time after time, not too often though, it pops up a dialog asking to purchase the bugging-free version. Is there a name for this type of software distribution model.

Answer 1

Usually this type of software is called "Nagware" because it nags you to pay money. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nagware.
