Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use earsay for Spotify-exclusive podcasts?
No, Spotify-exclusive content is only available in the Spotify app. However, most podcasts are available on all platforms—only a small percentage are truly exclusive.
Does Spotify have ad skipping?
No. Spotify plays all podcast ads, and Spotify Premium only removes music ads—not podcast ads. In fact, Spotify has been increasing podcast ads as a revenue source.
Which has better audio quality?
Both stream at similar quality for most podcasts. However, earsay's Voice Boost can significantly improve audio clarity for podcasts with poor production quality.
Is earsay free like Spotify?
Yes, earsay has a free tier with core features. Unlike Spotify, earsay doesn't show ads or require an account to use.
