Do you lose subscriptions to (and files of) mods if it went from free to paid?

Now that Skyrim mods are partially not free, what happens to mods that have chosen to transition from the previously (and only) price of 'free' to '[insert any value that's not 'Free']', what happens to those mods that I'm subscribed to?

So far, I've noticed that all the addons I've subscribed to disappeared (as in: Subscription gone).
And deducing that all the mods I've gotten in the years went from free to paid... The list went from like 50 to 3... All of them lockpick mods.

Do I lose subscription and in turn, Steam deletes them all?
Do I get to keep them but in order to get updates (or a redownload) I have to "buy" to subscribe to it^?
Or do I automatically stay subscribed?

^ I'm only referring to mods that have transistioned from 'free' (the previous and only option) to 'paid'.

Update

Great news everyone. Everything's now free again!

This issue is currently moot (as of 2015-04-27). According to Valve:

Removing Payment Feature From Skyrim Workshop

We're going to remove the payment feature from the Skyrim workshop. For anyone who spent money on a mod, we'll be refunding you the complete amount. We talked to the team at Bethesda and they agree.

Does unsubscribing from a mod remove it?

What happens when you subscribe to a mod?
