What the others said: if they are not projects you are able or willing to do for free, don't do them for free. If you don't want to sell them art, that's your prerogative as well. It's nobody's business if you choose to do free art for someone else but not them. Just like if you were dealing with an individual, if they throw a hissy fit about it, I'd say that's a pretty good indicator of how they'd be to work for (in other words, stay away from them).
If they do not respect your limits in regards to how they can use your work, ask for them to stop--I believe in giving people a chance to correct their mistakes--and if they still don't, you are within your rights to pursue legal action. Or take it to the local news.
It's just like any other commission. Make sure everyone knows the ground rules, and stick by them, or you could easily find yourself taken advantange of.
