Update (Feb. 13, 1:35 p.m. ET): Spotify posted an update on its community forum confirming that the issue was the result of a bug, and has since been fixed.
"We have good news from our teams — a fix for the instances where Premium users noticed ads when listening to music has been deployed and you should notice a difference right away," the company wrote. "It's worth keeping in mind, however, that it is expected that both free & Premium users may still see ads when listening to podcasts."
