More to the point: why exactly is the pro-choice movement and its friend Eliot Spizter afraid of free market competition?

Well, the only thing about the free market argument is that pro-life pregnancy centers
do not charge the woman anything. It is an entity that exists solely on donations.

Good point. And the Planned Parenthood clinics charged the woman for an abortion. Now I can see where they think the competition is undercutting them and they can't stand it. Not to mention what that would do to their cash flow. So they bring in their goon Spitzer to break a few kneecaps to ensure they remain in the black. Wow. They make "The Godfather" look like a legitimate operation by comparison. Which may be a valid point. The Don wasn't in the gruesome business of killing kids before their time... ;-)
