Sound selection and quality

The sound is very high quality, with the wind rushing being unique to this machine when compared to competitors.  This is often preferred to the digital sounds commonly offered.  However this wind rushing is the only sound offered, making the selection non-existent.  Also due to the nature of the technology, there are only two speeds of wind, which equates to volume.  This leaves many users complaining that it is either too loud or too soft with no way to adjust to a middle ground.
