One of my favorite ways to fall asleep is to have the radio in iTunes tuned to one of the "Ambient" stations at a low volume; something spacey, meditative, new-age. Nature sounds stations are great also. Perhaps the best music for a soothing night's (or in my case, day's) sleep is Gregorian chants. As every word they chant is in Latin, I have no idea what they're saying. Maybe it translates to "Hey, hey, we're the monks", but whatever it is, it's very calming.

Lights out, Gregorian chants, and a good book on the Paperwhite. Life doesn't get much sweeter than that!
I love Gregorian chants, I need to get some on cd because I think it would be ideal for when I'm sketching too.

Iirc the Logitech uses Tunein but via their servers. It's up now (after two days down) so I'm happy because I also love to listen to Classic FM on Sunday morning whilst dozing in bed.

I saw that Philips also has some internet radio's, however I trust Philips less than Logitech so I emailed them asking about the server set up.

After a busy day, too much to eat, the first two episodes of Downton Abbey and The Expendables it's time to go to bed, tune in to a classical radio station, read a bit and then sleep for a very long time.
