![]() Like a lot of modern services, they’re not fully-supported by paying customers and need to find other ways to generate revenue.I think all of these services are to some extent bound by revenue-sharing deals with record labels – that’s the main reason these all-in music services even exist – and so one way they can increase their share of the revenue is to get you to spend more of your time listening to things that generate them more profit while not pushing you so far away from what you like that you leave the service. Am I, as a paying customer, asking too much? Log in to Reply All I want from you is to give me a chance to get rid of your "Artificial Stupidity". How about allowing me to change the settings so that don’t see the podcasts and your failed attempts to teach me what I should listen? Show me just my music and the search option when I open the app. There is absolutely no way you can guess what I want to listen based on my recently played list.

But even for those people who may be interested in the ads, this sounds a bit invasive. But most people probably skip over podcast ads without thinking much about it. The idea is that finding links for the products and services that are advertised during podcasts is too difficult, and that this will drive engagement with sponsors. ![]() What Spotify is talking about is “bringing interactivity to the audio ad experience” using a system called call-to-action (CTA) cards that will appear over the Now Playing experience while an audio ad is playing. ![]()
