White/Brown Sound?

[MoneyPit1946]

I hope this is an acceptable topic to discuss here?
I've been a CPAP patient for over 30 years and longer than that before I was diagnosed. 
Lately, this past year or two, I'm having trouble falling asleep initially and after using the bathroom during the night.
I've read some positive results about playing sounds like ocean waves, rain & thunder among many others, can help you to fall asleep. 
I have the sounds I prefer, downloaded to a USB 3.0 Flash drive, but my problem is, I don't have any way to play these sounds in my bedroom. I was thinking about buying a kinda cheap radio/walkman thing but I don't want to spend a lot and of course, I want the sound quality to be acceptable.
Does anyone on this forum have any suggestions or personal experiences, that can provide me with some direction in this matter?

My mother has slept with a box fan running next to her bed, not to circulate air or anything, just pushed up against the bedframe to churn up the air and make noise, for decades. At first she started it to drown out my old man's snoring, but once he got on CPAP it was just a habit by then.

If you want something more "natural" than the drone of a box fan and have a USB drive, there are tons of options under twenty bucks that will play the sound. You can also look in the baby aisle for a cute little elephant or monkey that will do the job for you, works on my kids for sure.

Can you please give me some examples of Quote: "there are tons of options under twenty bucks that will play the sound". I've did some searching but I need a more exact description of what I'm looking for.
Thanks for your timely reply.

You can find sound generators on the internet for ipads and I would imagine for most smart phones for free.  I some times use either white or green noise, sometimes it works other times not so much.

Thank you! It seems that I forgot to mention that I don't have a "smart" phone.

If you have a smart phone with YouTube, there is a great selection of calm night music that can play in a "loop".

Maybe worth you investigating.

Thanks. As I've mentioned above, I don't have a smart phone.
