I'm not sure it's worth the $20 per month for a family plan of up to five either.

$4/person for music streaming, and all the video on the internet, without ads? What is a fair price for you?
zero because they didn't do the creation work in the first place and they don't share their revenue with the creators. So how about that?
The hosting of an unlimited number of videos of (almost) unlimited length at up to 8k resolution for an indefinite length of time is worth nothing to you? I'm incredibly grateful that there is such a vast video archive on the internet with such liberal terms for video uploading and playback.
And Google does revenue share with creaters. Heard of the YouTube partner program? Partners receive money per view from people who watch ads or have premium, and premium views are worth more.
They share revenues with creators, and enable them to have a massive reach by hosting unlimited amount of video for free.

I do pay that much for no ads and music streaming, but I'm not sure that giving Google more money in a monthly subscription on top of the money they generate from serving me ads is the best use of my funds. I pay that much because I hate YouTube ads. YMMV.
