Yeah I got it after some other lemming told me that you can get it for cheap with a family account. I pay 4 bucks per month now which apparently also supports YouTubers more than watching ads on their videos.

Been doing the same for years. Absolutely worth it.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Hot on the heels of Google's "One" subscription plan obtaining 100 million users, YouTube is also hitting that big milestone, with 100 million people paying for Premium and YouTube Music.
YouTube's subscription data didn't make it into the earnings call three days ago.
After warning users that ad blockers violate YouTube's terms of service, the pop-ups show a big "try YouTube Premium" button.
Premium also added an exclusive "enhanced bitrate" 1080p setting, although 2K, 4K, and 8K options have always been free.
YouTube Music is free with ads and a more limited feature set, but subscribing gets you ad-free playback, background playback on phones, and access to YouTube Music streaming on Google's various speakers.
YouTube's blog post highlights quotes from many big music industry CEOs celebrating the service.
