You still have access to the items which you downloaded and can continue to use on your devices. They gave you what you paid for. There is no obligation to provide free cloud storage services. They only agreed to provide such services if you maintain an account with them. You no longer have an account therefore you cannot access their servers. They no longer want to do business with you, so you cannot have an account. Something along those lines perhaps?
What does your contract with them really require by them and by you in the use of your account? Did you breach that contract by excessive...perhaps fraudulent... returns? Something along those lines?
I am using "you" in the abstract here. I am not referring personally to the poster that I am responding to.
