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.

audio ads are not blocked but muted
Nice to see these quick updates! You’re awesome! However, the latest version (1.6.6.1) still keeps exiting for some reason.
Oh and under details it said ‘1.6.6.0’ still.
Whoops, didn’t upload correctly. The link should be fixed now.
EZBlocker still randomly closes down
1.6.6.1
EZblocker shuts down when Spotify is minimized to the system tray, thinking one’s just after closing Spotify
Re-download 1.6.6.1. An older version was uploaded by accident.
Version 1.6.6.1 should fix the bug where EZBlocker randomly closes.
There is an error where the program is automatically shut down. I don’t know if it’s Spotify causing it or what, but it has happened multiple times since I downloaded v. 1.6.6.0 and has never happened before that.
Thank you for your work, EZ. I love you for this program <33
New version keeps turning off after some time 🙁 anyone has this problem?
Yes – on Windows 10 a little notification comes up and says EZ Blocker is now exiting. Then closes.
on win 7 even without notification
Does this new version (v1.6.6.0) work with Spotify 0.9.15…?
Oh, and thanks again for this wonderful blocker.
