i'm about to drop it at the end of the month regardless, but the lack of ads was part of the original appeal for buying it.

right now the available plans to me are (US$)

$7 with ads, 1080p

The vast majority of movies and TV shows are available, but a small number aren't due to licensing

$10 720p

$15.50 1080p

$20 4k

from the link,

the $9.99 (£6.99) / month basic plan is no longer available “for new or rejoining members.”

If you’re already subscribed to the basic plan, you can keep the subscription as long as you don’t cancel it or change plans. But if you were looking to downgrade your Netflix subscription to a cheaper ad-free plan, you’re out of luck. With this change, Netflix now only offers a $6.99 (£4.99) / month ad-supported tier, the $15.49 (£10.99) / month standard plan, and the $19.99 (£15.99) / month premium plan.
