#### More information

> if you Spotify stop playing (play just 5s then pause) music or can’t play the music, it means that Spotify has patched or changed the server and trying to run ads.
> 
> In this case, You need to find new list of DNS.

This happens when new version of Spotify is released.

This is a rather long a stressful process. Just download a 3rd party ware known as Hostsman. It’s the easiest and wprks seamlessly. It’s lightweight too. You can edit and customise your hostfile with comments as much as you wish. Has an easy to understand user interface too.

Here are links to both the portable and installer versions:

You can as well just run a google search for the software. It’s a freeware and readily available for download.

Is this a similar way as how blockthespot works? All i needed to do was replace 2 files and i get premium spotify. It still states its the **free** version, but everything works like the **premium** version.
