Very cool of you, I was debating the $149 price tag, but at $30 I just paid before I could think of a reason not to.

Quick question: is there a way to use an audio player (e.g., Audacious, RhythmBox, VLC) to stream the music without using a web browser? The animated light curves in the background make the browser use 100% of a whole CPU core, which isn't ideal, especially when using a laptop on battery.

Eeeek we getting fixing this asap. Until then iOS app is best bet.

prison break 1st season
how about approximating those sine-wave curves with bezier curves?

ps: I'm getting my salary on Nov. 11th so could you extend your offer until then?

prison break 1st season
Plug of my own. I'm a maintainer on an OSX toolbar plugin called BeardedSpice. Simple mapping of play/pause/etc/ keys to website audio players.

I was really happy to see we already had a controller strategy for brain.fm. You guys are making great stuff.

Hey, I'm really digging the Focus music. I was wondering to what headphones are you guys tuning it. It sounds awesome on my studio monitors, but it sounds like crap on my ATH-M50 cans due to the bass going over its limit unless I keep it to a rather low volume.

prison break 1st season
I use Bose Q25s. The noise cancellation + constant noise of brain.fm are perfect for putting me in a bubble

Hey you coming out w/ an android app any time soon? Would love to try the relax while I sleep. Just bought the pro deal.

prison break 1st season
Yup! 80% done, sprinting to release it.

prison break 1st season
Whenever I hear a programmer say "80% done" I think of the contractor's version: "two weeks", from the old '80s movie Money Pit:

The joke at my old work was 'basically done'. Meaning they spent a weekend equivalent on a prototype. Management heard 'done' the rest of us heard 'not production ready'.

prison break 1st season
Here is, 'done, just needs testing'.

prison break 1st season
Great, that means you only have 80% left to do!

prison break 1st season
well generally I think however long the first 80% takes, the last 20% will take 1-2 times that.. but cool that they're working on an android version, I'm patient and can wait. Loving brain.fm it actually works to keep me focused.

prison break 1st season
So it's a paid service, but it won't tell me the price (or the limits on free accounts) until I give it my email... No thanks.

prison break 1st season
That's a great offer! I'm chiming in to say that it made it a no-brainer for me as well and I signed up. I'm also interested in an Android app. :)

prison break 1st season
Just checked out your site and it is great. The sound is superb and it really helps focusing. Also, your offer is super generous.

However, you only accept credit card payments. I would never give my credit card info to a random site just to read a month from now that they've been hacked.

Is there a reason you are not accepting PayPal or BitCoins? It seems that you are not using one of those big payment processors either.

prison break 1st season
According to the FAQs they use Stripe.

prison break 1st season
My fault. Indeed they submit to stripe. Sorry for the mistake.

prison break 1st season
The form was pointing to their own website.

prison break 1st season
That coupon code shows a negative price for the lower level memberships, not sure if that means you will be paying us for it :)

prison break 1st season
that would be a revolutionary business model

it's a tiny bug, fixing now!

prison break 1st season
I just tried it for an hour or so and it does seem great. Bummed on the lack of an Android app though... would've helped me immediately.

Anyway, I read your comments that it is nearly 80% done so I'll give it a shot and signup. The mobile version on Chrome browser works decently well so I think I'll manage with that till then.

prison break 1st season
Very cool of you guys offering such a big discount. Tried to sign-up, saw the banner (about the discount), chose lifetime subscription (even without trying) but my card still was charged $149.99. ;( Is there a way to fix this? I mean it totally maybe worth it, yet I wasn't ready to spend that much.

prison break 1st season
Oh, I just got refunded. Thanks!

prison break 1st season
Impulse purchased this last night without really knowing what it was but boy was i impressed! Incredible really what you've done here and the developement team here loved it to! Well Played chaps!

prison break 1st season
I just spent 50 bucks for a yearly subscription to one of your competitors a week ago. My biggest complaint about them is that I can't get a list of tracks that I've really enjoyed and there's no upvote, play more like this feature. I don't care about social "likes" but some songs in an otherwise great playlist are just really grating and throw me right out of the focus window. It would be nice to say "don't play this again"

Here’s a balanced review of Prison Break Season 1: A Near-Perfect Blueprint for Suspenseful TV Lincoln Burrows (Dominic Purcell)

prison break 1st season
I'm a little late to the party. I bought the lifetime license from an earlier link that had it at $40.

My question is, is the tremolo/pulsating nature of the chords (sort of sounds like a helicopter) on most of the music a side-effect to the AI generated sounds, or is this by-design? If by-design, are there settings I could tinker with? If not, feature request. :)

I'm starting to find this a bit unnerving after extended periods, but it could be a personal preference.

prison break 1st season
Only some of the tracks have this. It's by design.

prison break 1st season
Previously I was cleaning cookies / local storage (to have more free sessions). Then I downloaded MP3 and created playlists. At $29 I have no other option but to buy it... HURRAY! . . . . brain.fm is like matrix, I admit!

prison break 1st season
Extremely cool of you to do this. Discovered the service yesterday, tried it, was amazed (hopefully not placebo) and today signed up (lifetime deal).

prison break 1st season
Is it possible to have a similar deal again since from the comments seems there are a lot of developers interesting in your service ? Thanks!

prison break 1st season
When is an Android app coming?

prison break 1st season
Clicked it, tried it, impulse bought. Seems worth it so far :)

prison break 1st season
Assuming theres no Android app?

Any ETA?

prison break 1st season
I think you can still run it in the browser. Not quite the same, I know (the iOS app is nice), but I think it might do for now.

prison break 1st season
Awesome. Subscribed!
