Honestly I have very little hope that Google will be able to provide a seamless migration that doesn't cause all sorts of issues down the line (Especially if you are using google cloud, firebase, analytics, play store developer, etc). It makes me think of what some people deal with when they log into iTunes/App Store with 1 Apple ID and then they login to their phone with a separate one which is supported but iffy or at least odd. I never like to have an account setup that is different/odd/non-standard. I can just imagine spending hours/days/weeks years from now trying to figure out why something isn't working only to finally hear "Oh, I see your account was converted from a legacy google apps account which caused....", if I'm even lucky enough to talk with a human with access to debug that deep about an issue I have.
I think I'd rather just pay the money (which is easier for me than some, I only need 1 account). I always knew this was a possibility and I'm glad I got as good of a run as I did. I've had this account since they first released "G Apps", they've earned the $6/mo going forward.

There'll be lots of new $6/month plans in the future, with slightly different names and feature sets, but as an existing customer you'll never be eligible for them.
