The feature does not apply to advertising sold directly by Spotify, and Spotify says it is testing the feature as part of efforts to make podcast listening more intuitive. Some publishers and creators have raised concerns that easier ad skipping could affect the value of host-read and embedded podcast advertising. Spotify says it has seen listeners reinvest the time they save into consuming more podcast content and does not expect the feature to negatively affect creator monetization.Podnews has since reported that this was a bug that the skipping feature did not work on their own ads. https://podnews.net/update/youtube-views-changeKatie Price Announces Live Podcast TourSource: Ary Newshttps://arynews.tv/...
