I'm weaning myself off of meat mostly because until recently, I didn't realize the degree of cruelty with which animals raised of slaughter were treated. I guess that was the final reason I decided to try vegeterianism. I always felt I'd do fine without meat. I carry a lot of muscle on my body naturally so I don't require as much protien as others may. I still eat sushi and sashimi occasionally. It's pretty hard not to eat any meat when your whole family constantly has a chicken leg in their mouth or something.

I don't think free range meat would sway my opinion much. I think once you eat a certain way for a while, your taste buds become accustomed to eating that way. Once you get used to eating lots of greens and you cut down on the salt (an ingredient required to enjoy meat) and frying oils, the latter become a little bit vomit inducing.
