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.

the api detect spotify ads but not muting
ezblocker verion : 1.7.3.0
spotify version : 1.1.10.540
Audio Ads still popping up
It’s not blocking concert advertisements, seems to register them as an artist playing a song
You’re the man Eric, keep up the good work 🙂
PS: for those that fear that this is a virus because antivirus detects it, don’t worry too much. I work as a software developper and things like that happens very very often as Legit software i wrote is detected as “malicious” one by the company antivirus. We have a very strict anti-virus at work and he didn’t detect anything in this software !
There’s some ads that aren’t being muted.
EZBlocker Version: 1.7.3.0

Spotify didn’t work after, all music from my playlist is gone and many songs cannot be played
Could you please bring back the button to add/edit songs that need to be included to the mute list? Ads that play music get through the filter. I don’t want to hear about WAVES or Third Eye Blind over and over, I got it the first time. lol
I can see sometimes the song playing in Spotify but unable to hear anything
