YouTube has been a source of great content for a long time, but for avid viewers those content pre-roll ads can get kind of annoying.

And considering how prevalent YouTube is across the web, getting rid of ads is probably a wish many viewers have had for years. Finally, that wish is coming true beginning Wednesday, October 28. Google has officially announced what it’s calling YouTube Red, which will offer ad-free videos for anyone that wants to pay the company $9.99 per month.

That means, primarily, that subscribers will get to watch as many YouTube videos as they want without having to view any advertisements, before, during, or after. Subscribers will also get to download videos to watch at a later date, even offline. What’s more, YouTube Red users will get to watch YouTube videos in the background, even as they’re running a different app. The cherry on top is free access to Google Play Music All Access (typically $9.99 per month), the company’s music streaming service.

YouTube Red will offer a 30-day free trial, too. (If you subscribe through the iOS apps, you’ll be paying $12.99 per month. Just an FYI.)

The ads aren’t going anywhere for those that don’t want to pony up $10 a month, though:

“The free, ad-supported version of YouTube we all know and love isn’t going anywhere. You’ll still be able to enjoy YouTube, along with the YouTube Kids, Gaming and Music apps free of charge. But with YouTube Red, you’ll be able to support the people who make your favorite videos while watching what you want, when you want, on any device you want, uninterrupted.”

Google also announced that YouTube Red will offer original content, which ranges in scope and publishers. For those that are fans of Rooster Teeth, that company’s new Lazer Team will be part of the Red programming, and fans of YouTube personality PewDiePie will also have original content called Scare PewDiePie. The list below will give you all the details of each new piece of content coming to YouTube Red next year:
