Spotify has acknowledged an issue that’s causing some of its paid Premium subscribers to encounter ads when trying to play music. In an X post published on Thursday by Spotify’s customer service account, the company said it’s looking into the problem and linked to its Community website where the issue has been documented by users over the past four weeks.
I gave up Spotify when they just wouldn’t stop trying to shove podcasts down my throat. It’s essentially ads for their own sponsored content they paid millions for that I have zero interest in. It just kept getting worse like the full screen pop ups for ‘recommendations’ based on their interests…not mine. So glad I didn’t have to deal with this too.
