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.

Works just fine for me. Windows 10 and the latest Ezblocker and Spotify version. Only big problem I have is that if I close spotify when EzBlocker is running the whole program freezes and stops responding. Then I have to close it from Task Manager which is really annoying. Otherwise it works like a charm.
make sure you have .NET Framework 3.5 installed and disable anything higher than that (control panel>programs and features>turn windows features on or off)
I have the 3.5 installed and I have disabled the 4.6 version. And everytime I close Spotify the EZBlocker freezes. It didn’t have any effect
It sometimes says “Spotify is paused” and doesnt mute ads how can I fix that? I start it as Administrator and block banner ads…
EZblocker doesn’t seem to be blocking ads on the latest Spotify yet
tested with MSIL “Trojan Horse” ? Is that normal?
Ty dude, works just fine (:
Does not work with latest update of Spotify.
Confirm. Doesn’t work 🙁
Dear fella, I’ll test it now and come back if it works. – December 2015
