why should I be paying for a music streaming app when I already have YouTube premium?

You mean because that subscription includes premium YouTube Music?

Yes. I see people with multiple subscriptions, including like yt and Spotify, and I don't understand why. Lol Do the offer services offer something other than just ad free listening that you wouldn't get with yt music?

There's definitely differences in the catalogs. If there's a particular genre that isn't well represented on YouTube Music that is well covered on Spotify. Maybe they just got YT Premium as a family subscription because the kids are on YouTube all the time. I personally can't imagine switching to a service that doesn't have a digital locker for me to upload my existing library like YouTube Music does (though I'm still mad at the uploads being less integrated than they were in GPM).
