How many ad-free plans does Netflix have?

It tops out at 1080p resolution when streaming video, and can be used on two devices in the same household simultaneously. Viewers can also download TV shows and movies on two devices with the Standard plan.

Netflix’s Premium plan costs $25, and includes Ultra-High-Definition 4K and HDR support — the best video quality offered by any Netflix plan. It also includes Netflix’s spatial audio and allows subscribers to stream on up to four devices at once. Customers can also download on up to six devices with Netflix Premium.
