I know of a company that did this last year for their business software. If you freeze your version, it still can become useless if Avid kills the iLok auth. I'd have to read the EULA to see what it says, but my guess is there is something in the language saying they can terminate the license.
If you will xgrade from your perpetual to a sub, yes it could happen, otherwise I think they can't shut down a license you bought as perpetual. Just my thought
