I have started listening to random American city council meetings lately for white noise. Since they're all bureaucratic-flavored boredom anyway.

It's a lower frequency noise, some people enjoy it more. As a bad analogy, it's a bit more like hearing a "waterfall" (brown noise) than "wind" (white noise)

I for one prefer brown noise. Could be a result of me working on a ship for a long while. I always found the deep engine hum with the sea against my porthole to be very soothing. Plus, the rocking motion didn't exactly hurt either.
