Price increase with adverts through premium plans?

My Question or Issue

There is hidden adverts imbedded in some of the podcasts and music.
( It’s extremely annoying when paying premium and it’s advertised no adds)

with the price increase is this going to be stopped, otherwise I don’t see the point in paying a subscription and would rather find another platform.

Hey @11180353175, thanks for reaching out to the Community!

I can confirm that no feature changes have occurred as a result of any price updates. Spotify doesn’t play ads that interrupt the music listening experience, however, some podcasts may include advertising, host-read endorsements, or sponsorship messages. There’s more info about this here.

If you’re experiencing ads while listening to music - can you let me know how often this happens? Any screen recordings of this would also be helpful.

I hope this helps. I'll be here if you need a hand with anything else!
