In their own words
Calm Radio
Calm Radio offers curated relaxing music, classical music, nature sounds and audio for sleep, meditation, focus and relaxation. Its multi-mixer lets listeners layer nature sounds with music to make custom soundscapes. The free plan costs nothing and includes 200 music channels, while Premium access includes 800+ HD channels. Monthly Premium costs $9.99 a month; One Year Premium is listed at $5.99 a year, billed annually, and the page also shows $119.98. Offline listening is available, and maximum audio quality is high. Calm Radio supports web, Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, Alexa, Sonos, Apple TV, Roku, Chromecast, Android Auto and CarPlay. Free listening includes advertisements, excludes HD audio and some channels, offers smaller playlists and does not support nature-sound layering. The company says it does not sell or rent personal information to third parties; depending on service use, it may collect contact details, location, demographic and device information. Subscribers can cancel through account settings and retain Premium access until the billing period ends.
