No, the data subscription is solely for that user (as far as I am aware - someone please correct me if I am wrong), not the whole account. So if user A is data mining symbols 1, 2 & 3, that user won't be able to see data on symbol 4, even if user B (on the same account) is subscribed. You'll still have the market data subscription fee for per user per month.
