    Paying Spotify and still getting adverts.

    At that point I decided that Spotify wasn’t for me anymore.

        It’s now been a while since I used Spotify, so no idea what it’s like now. I started to get Spotify inserted adverts when listening to podcasts. After a month or so of getting adverts I stopped my subscription and moved to other sources of audio entertainment.

        I paid for Spotify primarily to get away from adverts, secondly it was more convenient than being on the wavey seas with my parrot, black flag, and wooden leg.

        • It’s weird to me that people use Spotify for podcasts, a free medium established 10-15 years before Spotify even added them as a feature. Why not just use one of the free podcast apps that actually are mature and also designed for podcasts to begin with?

            I started with podcasts on Spotify because of the exclusivity of JRE. I listened to his podcasts because of the variety of guests, not for him.
