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.

Still works. Thank you very much.
Well done, Sir!!!
What about a Linux version? As it is written in C# you could try to compile it under Mono 😀
Upgraded to Windows 8.1 on my work laptop. EZBlocker doesn’t seem to remember to block banner ads when I boot up the computer every morning and open it. I run it as administrator but it still doesn’t block the banner ads. At home, where I’m running Windows7, it remembers to block banner ads, and ads are never played or muted because all of them get blocked. Was hoping I could get that at work as well. Any solutions…or what am I doing wrong at work? I don’t know how I got the arrangement at home where I get unlimited skips… Read more »
Getting a APPCRASH notification after starting, which prompts me to close EZBlocker: “EZBlocker has stopped working”. However, it is fully functional. The thing is, if I close the crash window, EZBlocker will close too, so this is very annoying. Any solution for this?
