Every single time I use Spotify, after the first advert it says to enjoy the next 30 minutes ad free. Then after a 2 minute long song, I get 5 minutes of adverts ๐Ÿ˜‘. Every single time

Edit: using mutify now, thank you everyone!

This is one service I pay for and never had had to worry about ads. I can skip around, download and work it just like my offline music with no differences

How many AI songs you have tho? Spotify has other ways to make money for itself and its cronies, namely by shoving fake generated music that big lables own down your playlist so the big label cartel gets more profit.

Probably not that many since I carefully curate my list and generally only listen to local artists or international that Iโ€™m familiar with.

I'm also paying for Spotify however I still get ads when listening to podcasts. Really bothering

[โ€“] Michal@programming.dev 1 points 11 hours ago (2 children)

I feel the same about youtube. I pay for premium, but sometimes creators bake in their own ads. I wish youtube would pay creators enough so they wouldn't have to do it.

Use sponsorblock on YouTube for desktop or smarttube on Android tv

[โ€“] RisingSwell@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 11 hours ago

Sponsors often pay significantly more than YouTube. If YouTube were to match or exceed it they'd be losing money absurdly fast.

Those arent spotify ads, they're the ads from the podcast. To my knowledge unless its a "spotify exclusive" all they are doing is fetching the RSS feed for you, not paying the creator anything regardless of your subscription status

And now they're showing locked episodes, which drives me up the fucking wall. Seems to only be with all the podcasts that SirusXM is buying up as of late, which unfortunately make up a good chunk of what I listen to.

Yes! And the most annoying thing is if I add to My Episodes by accident, it's impossible to remove.
