Wasn't there once a Spotify ad for their own premium service where all they did was play annoying dissonant sounds and then was like "you wouldn't have had to hear that if you had premium."

I wouldn't have had to hear that if I didn't use your fucking app and torrented all my music, how bout that?

(I never got an ad like this back when I still used Spotify so I can't confirm if this is real or not. Anyone else know what I'm talking about and can confirm if this was ever a thing?)

Gus got it right, they had the audio up like 9dB over the music (thats 3 fold audio power/volume for the non-nerds)
