You can play the DLC, once you cancel the subscription you will not be able to get into the regions of the DLC any longer.
You will keep skills and equipment that's only available through the DLC though

So technically get them for free, as long as I keep paying. I see. Makes sense. Thanks for the explanation.

If read once more on Elder Scrolls crown store site, it clearly describe that you will get an account with booster (10% increase compared to non-membership in ESO+) This means that you will have a little faster progression on your account for different kind of "experience" added to your account as long as you have en ESO+ membership. It is possible to buy same kind of boosters in crown store as experience scrolls.

You will also get some Crowns added to your account depending on time of your subscription plan.

You will get access to DLC content which will be withdrawn when you end your membership, after all it is a subscription and the main difference from a standalone purchase is that you will have limited access when you aren't renewing your membership on regular basis.

The best source to really be knowing which terms you will be accepting when you make your purchase (by doing "payment" you show that you have understood those terms) is to actually read on their site where have those terms stated. Make also sure to keep yourself updated for potential changes on those agreements/terms as those might be changed in the future. As every company they might later change TOS etc so it is in your own best interest to make sure that you understand for what terms your account will have, if there would be changes. (Save a copy of those terms, so you later can turn back to make sure what you did agree into with your membership in ESO+, if there would be any problems later.)

The thing is OP you also get crowns with each month's sub ( paid on the day of your sub so if you sub for say 3 months you get x3 months worth of crown subs on that day ), you can always use these to buy the DLC if you wish to stop subbing.

The incentives to sub are good if you - like to make 10% more gold, like to have 10% increased inspiration ( for crafting exp ), enjoy 10% more experience ( for leveling alts )...

Just had to remind you of the free crowns because those are free
