Apparently my ad blocker is blocking ads on spotify (1 Viewer)

[Michael]

I've been listening to music for about three hours and still no ad. It's a pleasant surprise.

I'm using AdGuard AdBlocker on firefox. I'm still not sure it's the ad blocker; but what else it is if it is not?

Well, I know of another firefox adblocker that apparently is specifically designed to block spotify ads. I may try it in addition to the one I already have and see if they work well together.

That’s some damn good adblock

I had thought no adblocker could; but yesterday was an exciting day for that.

This is probably a dumb question, but, is it part of your anti-virus software?

They are firefox addons.

I have that ad-blocker as well. Mine does not block in Spotify, sadly. Hopefully, it stays that way for you for a very long time.

I'm not really sure it is the adblocker. I'll try another one that claims to block spotify ads and see if it works well together with the one I have.

Does it really, though?
I thought Spotify was flat per stream, not a revenue share like YouTube or whatever.

I mean, yeah, Spotify will make less money, but lol that's praxis

 

[athenaaa]

That sounds great!

yea that's the bit I meant.

Just make sure widevine is allowed through though or else even the stream itself won't be managed.

On thinking this further, this could mean is that my favorite artists won't get paid either, however small it could be. I may actually turn off the adblocker on spotify.

No, it shouldn't mean that.

I don't think.
It would on platforms like YouTube or Twitch where there is a revenue share. However, on Spotify, as far as I can tell, there is a flat fee per stream. Ads is Spotify's problem.
