I don’t pay for music unless I buy the track or album.
YouTube music won’t play in the background though
It does for me though? Unless you don’t pay I guess? On android you can patch this with revanced, or use custom players

What’s revanced? I’m not especially keen to give Google my money either. They fall into the category of businesses that have way too much money and power already.

revanced.app
It’s basically a patcher app to apply some FOSS changes to your regular apps (ex: modify the YouTube app to add custom features, remove ads, add background play, bypass some other…)
I believe they have patches for YouTube music to remove ads and add background playback for non subscribers
