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!? 😑

    It’s both, it’s an ad plus a since you like X, try Y.

    One thing very harmful that may come from this, is that they can use this system as well in the auto-play feature, so artists who pay more to Spotify will be auto-played more when you’re listening to music.

    Afaik is not happening yet, but it will.
