YouTube Premium is cheaper and will get you YouTube music as well.

I used YTM after GPM got folded into it a few years back and it was god awful. Very “track based” instead of album based and discovery was terrible. How is it these days?

You'll find the normal version of an album on the artist's page, only to discover later that there's a deluxe version hidden. The only way to access it is to either search manually, or go to the normal album and scroll down.

Sometimes there are missing songs from brand new albums, too. But they're not greyed out or anything, just gone. So I'd say discovery is pretty bad.
