I have also been loving Brain.fm—no other "focus music" I have tried has worked so well.

If anyone here tries it and likes it, there is actually a pretty good discount on various subscription types that expires in a few hours: https://shop.theawesomer.com/sales/brain-fm-lifetime-subscri...

The discounts are not actually as steep as the site claims (for example, lifetime is normally $150, not $200), but they are still quite good.

"Lifetime" subscription? What does that mean? The lifetime of brain.fm?

No. It means if you're the last living customer of brain.fm, they will be forced by the authorities to operate their service till your children decide to take you off of life support.

Yes. Lifetime of the company. Companies have the ability to ditch nearly all obligations in bankruptcy.

Currently the Digg Store has a lifetime subscription for $39: https://store.digg.com/sales/brain-fm-lifetime-subscription

I have never used the Digg store, they sent me 10% off though for signing up. So got it for even less expensive.

thanks for the link, purchased!

Just like that it has rained

Thanks for the link. I really liked the music so ended up getting it.

Thank you. Tried it out, liked it a lot (felt improved from when they first launched), viewed the regular pricing and was trying to justify it... then found your link. Just purchased!

Well I'm trying to love it but it just sits on Loading Brainwave audio whilst Stephen Hawkings @ Cambridge Uni reads the email.

Cant handle hacker news bandwidth requirements?

Seems to like any email address I give it, perhaps Bill Gates might like some brain.fm instead... as if..

I didn't notice it at first, but there was a link at the bottom of the popup for me that said "No thanks, continue to download." Clicking it triggered the download.

How do you get transcripts done? In house,outsourced to a transcription service,voice recognition software?

It's not exactly what you're describing, but RFP-EZ isn't far off: http://www.whitehouse.gov/innovationfellows/rfp-ez

Their website is now apparently in open beta: https://rfpez.sba.gov/

All of the Indian visas I have been issued (6-month tourist visas) were good for 6 months from the date of issuance, not the date of entry.

Sorry yes I put my India parenthesis on the wrong clause - edited and fixed now!

If you are American you can get 5 or 10 year tourist visa for a little more.

I'm not sure exactly what you have in mind, but a rooted Nook Simple Touch might have the functionality you are describing. See, for example, this Lifehacker post: http://lifehacker.com/5926798/turn-your-rooted-nook-into-the...
