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.

Not working… All ads are loading…
1… The application says “Spotify is paused” even though it isn’t.
Not working anymore. It always says “Spotify is paused” and doesn’t mute the ads like it did before.
something happened to your download, there is a virus that is currently embedded into your link. Please fix the threat. Thanks!
hey, just checking in to say that ez blocker seems to have stopped working as of July 18th. not much information to report; audio for ads plays even when ezblocker is running.
hope you can get it working again, i love ezblocker! thanks!
Starting today ad blocking or ad muting of any sort is no longer working. EZ Blocker displays spotify as paused despite it running.
As others have stated, EZBlocker is no longer muting ads, It was working great up until a few days ago 🙁
1. Audio ads not being muted
As of today 7/19/18 Spotify pushed a new update which circumvents EZBlocker- which displays “Spotify is paused” but fails to mute the audio ads.
