Morphology

resubscribe = subscribe (transparent) = re + subscribe

The meaning is a straightforward repetition of the action 'subscribe', namely to subscribe again.

Etymology

Resubscribe breaks into re- meaning 'again' and subscribe, which comes from the old word scribere meaning 'to write'. Because people used to sign their names to join, resubscribe means 'sign up again' for a service or membership.
