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.

Guys I start EZ Blocker , the spotify opens but then the spotify closes the EZ. It happens the last days , previous it was ok. What should i do ?
Why the hell when I close spotify ezblocker closes too? Stop this!!
Hey, I read that I had to coment about banner ads not being hid but as long as we all know that doesn’t work anymore I’m reporting another problem. For some reason, the blocker suddenly closes by itself, without me touching anything. I have to open it again, which isn’t a big deal, but you might take a look at that. Great work anyway.
Hi, my EZBLOCKER isn’t starting on login, I can’t see the icon but when I checked it was habilitated to do so. Can someone help me with that?
Here’s a bunch of ways to get around it http://www.wikihow.com/Change-Startup-Programs-in-Windows-7
since some days it keeps saying “Loading…” in the lower left corner and neither the muting nor the blocking works. Strange thing though i didn’t change anything about spotify or ezblocker, even tried an older version, same problem. Sometimes it says “spotify is paused” but still doesn’t work. Had no problems before this started. Windows 10 x64 / .NET Framework 4.5 installed / tried reinstalling spotify & ezblocker
