179music

179music sits at 102 of 391 in China's listing, in the body of the list rather than at either end. This is where most of a national dial actually lives, and it is the part a country hub's first fifty rows never reach.

Broadcasting in Chinese, alongside most of China's other entries. The country page breaks the remaining five languages out with counts, which is usually a quicker read of who lives somewhere than any summary.

179music streams at 128 kbps, which is exactly where China's dial sits: the country's median is 128 kbps. Being unremarkable on this axis is the normal case and it is fine. 9% of the country's stations reach 128 kbps or better.

The stream address on this entry points at stream.zeno.fm, which is where 29 other stations in China are served from as well. Platforms of that size carry the long tail of a country's dial, and they are the reason a listing can look broken when it is one host having a quiet hour.

Their address is zeno.fm. A .fm address says the broadcaster wanted a radio sounding domain, not that the station is in Micronesia, which is where that domain actually comes from.
