MSDN 订阅许可证和企业协议
MSDN 订阅使开发人员能够访问 Visual Studio 2010 和最新的 Microsoft 平台以进行开发和测试访问。
Microsft MSDN 订阅白皮书称，通过“企业协议”（公司代表许多员工购买批量命名许可证）获得的 MSDN 许可证在许可证到期后将无法使用（即它们不具有永久使用权）。
我想知道这是否是一个技术限制 - 即该产品在许可证到期后将无法工作。或者微软是否依赖许可证所有者在产品过期之日停止使用该产品。
（PS：昨天我提出这个问题时，版主关闭了这个问题，说它与编程无关。任何使用过 MSDN 订阅的人都知道它与编程有很大关系。查看 FAQ 页面，我的问题满足“程序员常用的软件工具”。我的问题与所有 Microsoft 开发人员相关。）
MSDN subscriptions give a developer access to Visual Studio 2010 and the latest Microsoft platforms for development and testing access.
The Microsft MSDN subscription whitepaper says that MSDN licenses obtained thru an "Enterprise Agreement" (where a company buys volume named licenses on behalf of many employees) cannot be used after license expiry (i.e. they do not have Perpetual Use Rights).
I would like to know if this is a technical limitation - i.e. the product will not work after the license expires. Or whether Microsoft is relying on the licence owner to simply stop the using the product the day it expires.
(P.S. A moderator closed off this issue when I raised it yesterday saying it had nothing to do with programming. Any one who has ever used an MSDN subscription knows that it has a lot to do with programming. Looking the FAQ page, my question satisfies "software tools commonly used by programmers". My question is relevant to all Microsoft developers.)

Microsft MSDN 订阅白皮书（版本：2011 年 8 月）说道：
许可计划“开放订阅”和“开放”是不同的。
批量许可订阅就像“租用”软件的使用权。
The Microsft MSDN subscription whitepaper (Version: August 2011) says:
The Volume Licensing programs Open Subscription and Open are different.
Volume Licensing Subscriptions are like "renting" the right to use the software.
对于企业订阅来说是这样（就像租赁一样 - 该计划下的任何许可证都不是永久的，除非您在期限结束时进行买断）。对于常规企业协议来说则不然。这些许可证是永久的。您会失去获得进一步更新或媒体的权利，但您仍然可以在协议期限内使用您所拥有的内容。
True for Enterprise subscription (it's like a lease - none of the licenses under that program are perpetual unless you do a buyout at the end of the term). Not true for the regular Enterprise Agreement. Those licenses are perpetual. You'd lose rights to get further updates or media, but you'd still be able to use what you had during the term of the agreement.
