Brain.fm was a good deal when lifetime memebrships were available. It’s not worth the current monthly fee.
I lucked out and did the lifetime membership. It mostly stays unused but it's fun to have sometimes.

Is it possible to convert this to Spotify or YouTube music?
No idea. Deezer is DRM free, has a deep catalogue, has a solid API, and provides high fidelity files. I have no use for other services. Personally I’d recommend them. As an example of a personal project I’ve built on their API: https://audile.app (a random album on every page load) Unless you have an online service you won’t be able to keep this playlist in sync on another platform as I continue cultivating it. I do…
I used a service (soundiiz) that only allows 200 songs to be converted for free.

I skipped the tutorial and was right into a scene with no signup?
Really? Because I ended on a scene that was unusable without signing up

There is a (very stylized) cross mark on the top right corner which you can click to get rid of the signup screen and then hit the play button for music to start playing. Clearly the process needs a few more iterations of improvement.

#65I've downloaded few mixes with relaxing music from YT and created a playlist in my foobar, it's simple and it doesn't require browser. I also recommend some radio streams: https://somafm.com http://echoesofbluemars.org/ https://plaza.one/
Somafm digitalis has been my beat since 2008ish

#66as someone who is currently subscribed to both endel AND brainfm AND has several lofi playlists on spotify, you need to work on your onboarding process. first I had to navigate several tutorial screens and then I have to sign in just to hear music? You're going to lose a lot of signups. You need to make the music available asap so that I can see what I'm buying into. even taking the time to fill out another signup fo…
Some music starting to play in background would definitely be great. Btw, I just tried both endel and brainfm and both required me to sign up before i could listen to any music.
strongly disagree. If your web page of any kind autoplays music, I'm just closing it right away.

Don’t do that, I could see that being bad too. Unable to stop or pause is another problem. The various screens to get started just need to go away.
Hey there, I appreciate the feedback and the tutorial screens will definitely go away as soon as the landing page will be live later next month. Can I ask what you mean by unable to stop or pause?
Re: Lofi.co – Relax and Focus
#68Reminds me of lofi.cafe, same concept but without creepy login screens and "onboarding processes".
Yep. Three taps in and I'm already hitting "premium" screens. No thanks.
