Spotify fixes bug that had Premium subscribers hearing ads


It looks like a bug, and the company is investigating.

Ad-free music streaming is a key perk of Spotify Premium, which starts at $12 per month, and users are understandably frustrated. Spotify asks users affected by the issue to add to the thread with their device information, app version or web player, the type of ad they heard, and any troubleshooting steps they've already taken.
