Remove ads from premium plans

When someone pays for a subscription with the promise to get ads free content, Spotify should respect that and avoid third parties to add commercials in podcasts.

Spotify should remove the option for podcasters to add commercials in their podcasts on Premium accounts.
I pay a Premium Plan with the intent of not having to listen to unwanted commercials.

Hey @kapua4, thanks for reaching out to the Community!

I'm very sorry to hear this.

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.

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

@Billy-J

Your post certainly does not help thanks. No excuse for it. Stop blaming the podcasters themselves. Spotify could easily implement a no ad policy on podcasts, stop making excuses for pure greed.
