Okay, so even assuming that's the case, "stopping distribution" is different than "we're gonna charge you for installs of copies you've already sold". Still not seeing how that's legal.
Naturally they only get to charge for already-sold copies if you accept the new terms that include the charges. As for how it's legal to include those charges in the new terms to begin with, I guess you'd have to ask a contract lawyer. Presumably Unity's own lawyers are convinced they can get away with it, or they wouldn't have done it.
