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.

Seems Spotify has ended it’s harassment campaign on EZBlocker, I guess they ran an anti-ad-blocker campaign on last quarter of the year to get two people more to buy the Pro to pay for free music. At least for me EZBlocker and Spotify have played nicely for one month+ now. I can start Spotify or EZ first, but I do need to start playback 2-3 times before music mute goes away. Keep up the good work Eric and volunteers! <3

When Spotify is opened and latest version of EZBlocker also starts to work, I have now to go to volume mixer to make sure spotify-volume is on.
Also it doesn’t skip the adds but just mutes it….

Seems that spotify starts to make it you difficult 😛

I have the option “Start Spotify with EZBlocker” marked, and when I open Spotify and start playing a song, Spotify is muted automatically (even though there is no ad). The problem goes away by opening Volume Control and manually unmuting Spotify, but it’s still a bug.
