It's YouTube Premium now, and it's $11.99/month. Also, without resorting to APK hacks I don't think it's possible to use on my Amazon Fire Stick. Otherwise I'd love to pay for YouTube to watch YouTube without advertisements.

On Fire TV you can use the web version of Youtube in the browser (Silk or Firefox) and it works pretty well as it's formatted for the larger screen. I'm not sure if this doesn't apply to Fire Stick.

Ah, for some reason I just assumed that YouTube Premium didn't work with Firefox, which is what I use now, and you had to have the native Android App. I think the problem I had the last time I tried this had to do with the fact that I had a YouTube creator account, and Red wouldn't work with it.
Anyway, now I'm putting my money where my mouth is and am happily watching ad free YouTube content (which I love dearly) on my TV. Totally worth it.
