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.

You are keeping the spirit of the internet alive! 😀
You got my full honor for creating such an awesome and perfect working Ad Blocker. Keep on the good developing on it ;). Greetings from Germany
With the latest update of Spotify (1.0.3.101) Banners do not disappear when the program is running although it mutes audio ads. You can check it ?? … I am very grateful for this program because it is very good.
thank you so much Eric. I like the way you present the page and the app. It gives me confidence that you are not a hacker that wants to load a virus on my computer, but rather a clever student who has applied his skills intelligently and offered to all. Also my Norton Antivirus marks your prog as ‘safe’ so i use with confidence. Well done!!!!
Is there any possibility that some file like this exists to work on PS4’s Spotify app? Is it something you’ve considered working on?
Some ads get through. I used to be able to block them with an option on your EZBocker screen. This option is no longer available. Is there still a way to block the ads that make it through the blocker? I assume these may be newer ads that have not yet been blocked with your program. Thank you.
Agreed! I’m getting a lot more ads with the most recent updates, and miss the “add to block list” button. Bring it back?
Wow, you are awesome, just like this ad-blocker! Works out perfectly, I only use the option “Block Banner Ads” and the ad at the bottom in Spotify disappeared when I restarted Spotify. A honorful thank you.
Hi
I have problem making EZBlocker autostart in Win 8.1, i have put the shortcut in “c:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup” and it is showing up in the “See what processes start automatically when you start windows” but for some reason it does not autostart when i start windows. Do you have any suggestions?
Thank you for a great program!
