"Sponsored recommendations": I pay for Spotify Premium, and yet somehow I'm still the product?

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!? π

You happen to know of a nontoxic alternative that doesn't involve torrenting?
Modded Spotify Premium w/ gold theme by RockMods, download from Mobilism. Works really well, been using it for months. Checks out with all the antivirus scanners I use, and most stuff on Mobilism is safe (there's exceptions of course, but I'm sure you know how to be safe if you mention torrenting). Create a separate spotify account for it just in case it gets "fixed" though. Seems well supported by updates. Much better to the alternative - torrent client for downloading 'Linux ISOs'...
I like Apple Music. It's awesome even on Android, which is what I use.
