Interesting! I've been having great success lately with BrainFM, though I'm only using the "atmospheric" tracks. I'll have to check out the one you mentioned. The earbuds that worked for me are wired - the wire can be inconvenient, but with no battery, they're so much smaller than wireless, so I can wear them comfortably for 8-plus hours. Your mileage may vary of course...

I deliberately asked for a full face mask because during my sleep study about a year ago, the sleep technologist put me on CPAP for half the night and started me out on a nasal mask, but I kept opening my mouth, I guess to swallow and whatnot, and she noticed the air leaks and replaced it with a full face mask.

Are you familiar with the software called Open Source CPAP Analysis Reporter (OSCAR?) It lets you pull data from an SD card used in your CPAP machine if you're using one. It's somewhat accessible, and I've found it to be useful in some situations. You have to be using an SD card in your CPAP machine for it to be very useful. If you're not, if you put an SD card in, it'll apparently write extremely limited data for the past several days (not sure how long) to the card at first, then if you actually have the card installed during a therapy session, it logs all sorts of events such as different types of apneas, air leaks, etc. Then if you move the card from your CPAP machine to your PC and run OSCAR, you can import that data into the system and get all sorts of graphs and statistics. sleepfiles.com/OSCAR/

Okay that's weird, the product page I read clearly says it uses cellular connectivity. Here's the page I found, note this may be US only. cpap.com/products/airmini-airf…
