EZBlocker is a simple-to-use ad blocker/muter for Spotify. EZBlocker will attempt to block ads on Spotify from loading. If an ad does load, EZBlocker will mute Spotify until the ad is over.
There are no fancy features, just pure ad blocking. When an ad is blocked, only Spotify is muted, so no other sounds will be affected. EZBlocker aims to be the most stable and reliable ad blocker for Spotify.
There's no setup required - just drag it into any folder and run. To upgrade your EZBlocker, simply replace the executable file.

FAQ
Why is my Spotify is permanently muted?
There may be issues with EZBlocker muting Spotify on your computer. You can manually modify your Spotify's volume by opening the Volume Mixer.
How do I block banner ads?
Check the "Block Banner Ads" box to enable banner blocking. Enabling and disabling this feature requires you to run EZBlocker with administrator privileges.
Does EZBlocker block video commercials?
EZBlocker will mute videos but not prevent them from playing. If you don't want video ads, make sure you keep your Spotify minimized.
Why does my anti-virus say EZBlocker is a virus?
The latest version of EZBlocker may be picked up by a few anti virus programs. This is most likely due to the way EZBlocker disables Spotify's ads. If you do not feel comfortable downloading the executables directly, feel free to view the source code and compile it yourself.
How do I donate?
I don't accept donations for EZBlocker. I would rather you spend your money on Spotify Premium. If Spotify Premium isn't offered in your region, I suggest donating to a non-profit such as the Tor Project.
Is EZBlocker open source?
Yes it is, and I encourage all to contribute. The source & technical description is available on Github.

I can verify that that today 10/10/2016 the latest version of EZBlock works perfectly with the latest version of Spotify and blocks all ads: sound, video and image. You dont even have to wait and hear a muted sound, it just disables all ads. What I did is to put the file on a folder C:\Program Files (x86)\EZBlocker and right click checked Compatibility / “Run as administrator” and then I opened EZBlocker and checked all 3 options. Now Spotify is like Premium but it still has the normal quality of audio. Real premium has HQ sound. But I am ok… Read more »
Hello. Having the same problem, as described below: stuck at “loading…” and saying:
The remote name could not be resolved in the logfile.
Any solution yet?
#1 – Audio is not muted anymore… It was working fine until the update 🙁
How do I uninstall this?
I invested in spotify premium and it’s just sort of redundant now.
You have to double click on EZBlocker icon on system tray. Uncheck the last option (Start with windows). Open task manager (ctrl+alt+del) and kill ezblocker or just restart the system. Then you are free to delete the .EXE file and that’s all.
This works great. haven’t had an ad for 2 weeks now. Thanks so much for making this!
