WindowRadio.de

WindowRadio.de sits in the tail of Albania's 22 entries. The tail is the part of a directory that goes missing first, and it is the part worth keeping: the head of every country's list is the same handful of national broadcasters, and everything that makes a dial local is behind them.

No opens have been recorded against WindowRadio.de in the public directory. Plenty of working stations sit at zero, because the count only rises when somebody plays the stream from a client that reports back, and most listening never touches the directory at all.

Two stations in Albania lead with the tag albanian music, and WindowRadio.de is one of them. That is a small enough group to hear end to end, and the tags are the broadcasters' own words rather than a classification imposed here.

The encode is 192 kbps against a country median of 128. Comfortably above the middle of Albania's listing without being one of its outliers.

The station's site is at windowradio.de, which sits under the .de country domain rather than Albania's. That mismatch is usually mundane, a host or a parent organisation registered elsewhere, and it is the kind of small inconsistency worth seeing rather than smoothing over.
