Bossa Jazz Brasil

Bossa Jazz Brasil is one of the three most opened stations in Brazil in this directory. That is a small enough club that the country hub lists all of them above the fold, and a large enough country that the position means something.

Bossa Jazz Brasil has 79 recorded opens in the public directory, which is a real number by the standards of this data set. Most entries never reach double figures, so a count at this level means the stream has been found and played repeatedly by people using directory clients rather than the broadcaster's own site.

Bossa Jazz Brasil shares its leading tag, bossa nova, with one other Brazil entry. Across every country the directory has 11 stations leading with it, so the rail below is mostly a trip abroad.

The gap here is large: 64 kbps where Brazil's stations typically run 128. Rates at this level were designed for dial-up and for mobile data that was billed by the megabyte, and plenty of stations simply never changed the setting.

The stream is served from centova5.transmissaodigital.com:20104, which no other entry in Brazil uses in this snapshot. Nothing else in the listing shares its fate: if this address stops answering it is this broadcaster's own outage, and if it plays, it plays.
