Nobody will ever be able to force changes on a contract retroactively on you. The only time this ever happens is if the original contract violated some law, and then the retroactive change will be ordered by a Court of law only to revert illicit gains made. So even if this current change were to affect you, you simply would not renew the subscription. You would then still be able to distribute all your previous works, because they only have to fulfill the old license agreement. Things only get more complicated if it's a continuous development project and you want to be able to provide updates and/or new content.
