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.

Hi there!
Windows 7 Home Premium, 64-bits.
New version 1.7.1 is not working at all!
Immediately after starting the program comes the message: “EZBlocker not working any more”. Tried 25 times and also tried restart of computer.
Now I went back to 1.6.8.6 and that one works good, as always,
Comments are much appreciated!
Works great blocking all ads, only thing is that it also blocks Friend Feed so there’s no way to use it and get the friend feed at the same time.
Hi. I can’t seem to pause spotify for longer than 30 seconds or so with the new version. Music just starts back up after a certain amount of time. Does this happen to anyone else?
Thank you, Eric! <3
New version incorrectly mutes some songs (“muting ad”) thinking they are ads :S
same here
Thanks again for your hard work
Windows defender marks the update as harmful. Anything that can be done about that?
Works great again! Good job, Small bug I found though, If you start EZBlocker when Spotify is not running, EZBlocker will crash regardless of whether ‘Start Spotify with EZBlocker’ is on or off. With it on it starts Spotify then crashes EZBlocker. This is not that big of an issue though as I can just start Spotify then open EZBlocker.
