EZBlocker is currently un-supported.
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,
version 1.4 crash after few seconds everytime I doble-click exe file… I’m using Win 8.1 32bits.
vesrion 1.3.6.6 seems to work well.

Want donate!! 😀
Hey Eric,
Thank you very much for the app. It works fine and I am super happy.
Just one thought: How about building a function where you can play your own MP3s while spotify is muted?
-> You select a folder on your PC and EZBlocker automatically plays the MP3s in this folder whenever there is an ad on spotify. When the ad is over, EZBlocker puts pause to spotify and lets the own MP3 song run to its end. Afterwards it switches back to spotify.
cheers,
Joe
It’s a pitty, the advert-blocker doesn’t work anymore with the new version of spotify 1.0.1.805.gd2412973
The muting button works fine, but it is not possible to add any advert to the blocking-list.
Hi Eric,
The newest version works even better, almost no ad slips through. Great!

Does this work?
Thanks for this truly useful app ! Just one thought : When i bring EZBlocker to the top and add an advert to the blacklist I sometimes accidentally click the “Close” button. EZBlocker shuts down and I have to re-launch it. Maybe you could modify your program in such a way that clicking the Close button would only send EZBlocker to the system tray ? To exit the program one would need to choose the command from the program’s main window (a new function button). … Or maybe adding a simple warning popup window (“Are you sure you want to… Read more »
Hi Eric!
Great app/program!
But the last windowsversion totally doesn’t work for me after upgrade.
Doesn’t mute ads, starts Spotify muted (always!) and random .net crashes.
Can I do anything to provide the info for you?
I had to revert the upgrade to the old version…
Unfortunately, Norton blocks the app every time I install it.
