Subscriptions

There's a few Paypal plugins available out there that I'll get into
when I begin coding. Those seem to handle taking the initial payment,
and communicating with PayPal to ensure that the payment was
successful or a failure for whatever reason.

That's fine, for a one time payment - but how would a subscription
plan work?

User buys a 30 day subscription and the software updates to allow the
user access to features for 30 days. At the end of that 30 days, how
would the program check with PayPal to ensure that the subscription is
still valid? How would we tell the system that the user has cancelled
their subscription through the PayPal website?

Thanks :)
