Morphology

subscribership = subscriber (transparent) = subscribe + er + ship

Formed from 'subscriber' + '-ship' indicating the state or collective related to subscribers, a straightforward nominal derivation.

Etymology

The word subscribership comes from subscribe 'to sign up' or 'agree to receive' and the ending -ship, as in friendship or leadership, which means 'state' or 'group'. So, subscribership is the group or number of people who have signed up for something, or the state of being a subscriber.
