I opened Spotify this morning to be greeted by a modal popup with a “sponsored recommendation”.

Why am I seeing ads if I’m already paying for the premium plan!? 😑

    I listened to 9,852 different tracks in 2022 from 3,247 different artists across 6,720 different albums.

    It’s just not feasible for me to buy them all.

      Convenience and family plan is the only reason I have it. I’ve also got a local DNS server with ads blocked, so that helps. Otherwise I’d be pirating again. Have over 80k songs from back in the day, just need the newer stuff.
