This is a simple stripped-down version of a script that appears in the github page of spotify-adblock in order to remove the annoying ad banner in Spotify. This is only a (hopefully, welcome) visual change and does not remove the ads themselves - for this, you have to additionally use the spotify-adblock(-git) package.

Sure. I need to check again and see what I changed, so I'll post a comment when I find it.

@Sanras can you tell me simply (but exactly) what you manually change at xpui.js to get the upgrade button to disappear? I may be able to add this change to sed. But, as I said I have just shamelessly copied the scripts from a comment at the spotify-adblock github issues.

Awesome! I was thinking of making something similar, but I haven't learned how to use sed yet...

Would you be willing to integrate another patch into the script?

BlockTheSpot can also remove the upgrade button, which would be nice to have automated. Right now, I just manually patch the ad banner and upgrade button myself with a text editor.

You can see what needs to be changed here in BTS's script: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mrpond/BlockTheSpot/master/install.ps1
