I'm on a very tight budget so have only paid for streaming occasionally in the past: Zuzka for a couple of months a few years ago and a month of Adriene's channel to gain access to a particular program. I still have about 40 DVDs and several VHS but have been gradually doing more on YouTube, like Pahla.
However, this year I've been struggling with motivation and finding something I will stick with so I decided to purchase The Body Project's quarterly sub because they have a nice variety of workouts that fit my needs right now, most of their programs are short with no repeats (unless you want to), and it was reasonable for my budget ($45 for 3 months). I also think the fact that I paid real money for it helps in getting me to actually do the workouts. At the end of 3 months I can evaluate whether to renew. So far I'm very pleased with it and just finished the 2-week Real Start Plus program yesterday.
ETA: from what friends with YouTube channels have told me, the creators have the ability to decide when the ads appear--at the beginning, end or midroll. I'm noticing a whole lot more midroll ads on the non-fitness channels I watch, so maybe YT changed their options recently or possibly your channel has to reach a certain level before you're given the option of when ads run.
