Is there a Spotify alternative that has no ads?

I pay for Spotify for 7 years or so now and i’m so sick of all the ads. After every update there seems to be an: oops, sorry, you have ads now. Podcasts are filled with ads. I was just listening to a podcast where they shoved in 3 ads mid-sentence. How long until musicians put ads in their songs. I’m just so sick of it.

    @ickplant sometimes they are. American podcast doesn’t sometimes have german ads. And if they do, fuck them. That’s like paying for netflix but some movies still have ads.

      But it’s literally the podcast hosts choosing to insert ads. Not Spotify. It would be like blaming Netflix because you didn’t like what the characters are wearing on one of the movies.

      For podcasts, just use another podcast asp, or even the podcasts’s website
