awesome of them. sometimes you just want to get away from the ads and listen to your music.

Seriously. The regular ads are bad enough.

They really ruin the mood.

Good for them. The last thing I want to hear when I'm trying to calm down with my shitty music is a political ad, tbh.

My favorite part of making playlists is coming up with the titles.

Is it worth getting a subscription for Spotify? I just listen to the music videos on YouTube

I use the free web version, ad block gets rid of the ads.

[drunkenclaudius]

Yes!

But I always get 3 months for 10 bucks and then when I cancel they just resend that offer, lol

[goshipgurl]

Where did you get that offer in the first place?

[inkstainedlips]

That's great tbh, better to just have none than to be a mess like FB.
