You still have access to the product keys of products that were released while your MSDN subscription was active.
Our company had an MSDN Operating Systems edition. When that subscripion ended we purchased MSDN Universal (or Premium or whatever they call it this week). When we logged on to MSDN we could select either the Operating System account (which had expired) or the Universal account. We could still download from the OS account, but only those products released during the subscription period. You are still bound by the licence, so you wtill have caps on how many installs you have etc, but the products are still active.
Most MSDN subscriptions are a perpetual license. When the subscritions expire, you still have the legal right to use everything that was included in it. However, this might not be the case for some volume license subscriptions, so you'll want to check out your specific subscrition to be sure. I've had expired volume license subscriptions in the past that have locked me out of viewing the keys - so you'd want to make sure you download all the keys before the expiration date.
Quote from MSDN FAQ - "In most cases, MSDN Subscriptions come with “perpetual” use rights—the ability to continue using the software after the subscription has expired."
The answer is that it depends on the channel through which you purchased your MSDN subscription. Most channels do not allow you to continue using the software after expiration of MSDN:
Perpetual Use Rights Visual Studio subscriptions purchased through certain channels provide perpetual use rights that allow subscribers to continue using certain software products obtained through an active subscription after the subscription has expired. However, subscribers are not entitled to updates for that software after the subscription has expired, nor do they continue to have access to software or product keys through Subscriber Downloads or to other subscription services that are a benefit of having an active subscription. Product keys that were acquired while the subscription was active can continue being used until all activations for those keys have been exhausted. If a Visual Studio subscription is transferred or sold, any perpetual use rights are transferred to the new party and the seller can no longer use the software. Generally, Visual Studio subscriptions that do not provide perpetual use rights include:
Visual Studio cloud subscriptions
Visual Studio subscriptions purchased through Enterprise Agreement Subscription, Open Value Subscription, Campus Agreement, or other “subscription” Volume Licensing programs
Visual Studio subscriptions offered through the Microsoft Partner Network to competency partners and to Microsoft Action Pack partners.
In the above cases, subscribers can no longer use any software provided through the Visual Studio subscription after it expires.

您仍然可以访问 MSDN 订阅有效期间发布的产品的产品密钥。
我们公司有 MSDN 操作系统版本。 订阅结束后，我们购买了 MSDN Universal（或 Premium 或本周他们所说的任何名称）。 当我们登录 MSDN 时，我们可以选择操作系统帐户（已过期）或通用帐户。 我们仍然可以从操作系统帐户下载，但仅限于订阅期内发布的产品。 您仍然受到许可证的约束，因此您的安装次数等会有上限，但产品仍然有效。

大多数 MSDN 订阅都是永久许可证。 订阅到期后，您仍然拥有使用其中包含的所有内容的合法权利。 但是，对于某些批量许可证订阅来说，情况可能并非如此，因此您需要检查您的特定订阅以确保确定。 我过去的批量许可证订阅已过期，导致我无法查看密钥 - 因此您需要确保在到期日期之前下载所有密钥。

答案是，这取决于您购买 MSDN 订阅的渠道。 大多数渠道不允许您在MSDN：
永久使用权 到期后继续使用该软件
通过某些渠道购买的 Visual Studio 订阅提供永久使用权，允许订阅者在订阅到期后继续使用通过有效订阅获得的某些软件产品。 但是，订阅过期后，订阅者无权获得该软件的更新，也无法继续通过订阅者下载访问软件或产品密钥，也无法继续访问其他订阅服务（这是有效订阅的好处）。 在订阅处于活动状态时获取的产品密钥可以继续使用，直到这些密钥的所有激活都已用尽。 如果转让或出售 Visual Studio 订阅，则任何永久使用权都将转让给新方，并且卖方将无法再使用该软件。
通常，不提供永久使用权的 Visual Studio 订阅包括：
Visual Studio 云订阅
通过企业协议订阅、开放价值订阅、校园协议或其他“订阅”批量许可购买的 Visual Studio 订阅计划
通过 Microsoft 合作伙伴网络向能力合作伙伴和 Microsoft Action Pack 合作伙伴提供的 Visual Studio 订阅。
在上述情况下，订阅者在订阅到期后将无法再使用通过 Visual Studio 订阅提供的任何软件。
