Why free + paid

Binaural Beat Machine was built by a professional sound engineer (LA & Las Vegas, industry since 2010). The listening experience stays free so potential therapeutic listening isn’t locked behind a paywall. Fees for developers and engineers with genuine products help maintain the website. Both matter.
