If the price was like $5 per month and it gave you no ads and 4K steaming it might be worth it. But at the current pricing it just isn't good value since YouTube doesn't produce content like other streaming services (and creators still have to rely on sponsorships for their livelihood regardless of whether the viewer is a premium subscriber) that justifies paying the higher prices for the service.
Instead their attack on their customers rather than just making the service valuable enough to pay for makes me never want to give them a cent.
