I have had spotify for years, and use the free version because I currently can't afford premium. I have accepted the use of ads, and understand their presence. I also find it reasonable that there has been an increase in ads since I started using this platform in 2015. HOWEVER, the ads keep getting worse and worse: 4-5 ads every 2 songs, more ads on the app, more ads when I am hooked up to another speaker or while driving, just the fact that it is 4-5 ads instead of 1 or 2, the app crashing and playing an ad every time i reboot it. I wish that Spotify would limit themselves, I understand the need for ads to pay for the free service but its getting to a point where I am considering jumping ship.
