清晨，海边刚刚亮起来。 海浪一下一下地拍在岩石上，水声低而长，偶尔卷起碎石。 风不急，顺着岸线往林子那边走，吹动干草和帐篷。 篝火还没熄，火焰在木头缝隙里噼啪作响，断续但清晰。 远处传来几声鸟叫，又被浪声盖过去了。 这些声音，是有人在生活里慢慢拾起的。 他们没有预设，只是在刚好听见的时候，把它们留下。 世界各地的声音使者，收集了这些声音， 在各自的时刻里，把它们留了下来。 它们慢慢聚在一起，变成一朵朵云，飘荡着，汇聚在 Clouds FM。

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Clouds FM at none against B Side's 1. Clouds FM also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.0). B Side's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
