Is there a Spotify alternative that has no ads?
I pay for Spotify for 7 years or so now and i’m so sick of all the ads. After every update there seems to be an: oops, sorry, you have ads now. Podcasts are filled with ads. I was just listening to a podcast where they shoved in 3 ads mid-sentence. How long until musicians put ads in their songs. I’m just so sick of it.
Spotify is giving them that choice. It should say that it won’t run ads for premium users - only free ones.
It’s not Spotify that’s “giving them that choice.” It’s the podcast distributor. For example, I use Red Circle, and I can choose to insert ads through them. Podcasts have the same ads regardless of the platform they are on. It’s not Spotify, it’s the podcasts. I don’t like ads either…
How does it give me location specific ads if Spotify isn’t inserting the ad for them?
