It's funny because I pay for premium and have noticed a worse experience since this was revealed. They don't seem to check if a user has adblock and pays.

    They definitely seem to have checks in place for it. I have Family Premium and so far no issues at all.

    Edit: to clarify, not a fan of any of this. Just saying it does work for me

    Well, I don't pay for premium, and I use an adblocker, and I haven't had any problems. Not having a problem doesn't prove anything if they're only targeting a subset of their users...
