Easy Hits

Easy Hits is at 20 in a listing of 70. Read the rank as a rough position rather than a standing: the click counts in the middle of a long national list are close enough together that a handful of opens moves a station several places.

Easy Hits has no language recorded in the directory. We do not infer one. Guessing from the country would put every station in Finland on the same shelf regardless of what it broadcasts, which is exactly the kind of filled-in blank that makes a directory untrustworthy.

Easy Hits reports no bitrate to the directory. Rather than print a zero or invent an average, the page says nothing, which is the same policy every empty field on this site gets.

The stream is served as an HLS playlist, which is the format broadcasters use to switch bitrates on the fly and the one a plain browser audio element will not open. Nothing is wrong with the station; the player on this page simply cannot follow that kind of link without a library. The extension carries one and handles it.

Its audio comes straight from aud-stream-easyhits.nm-elemental.nelonenmedia.fi, an address unique to this entry in Finland's listing. That is the simplest case there is, and it is the one where pressing play tells you the whole truth about whether the station is on air.

Easy Hits and HitMix are described by the directory in very nearly the same fields, which makes the differences between them worth stating rather than leaving to be inferred. The two streams are served from different addresses, aud-stream-easyhits.nm-elemental.nelonenmedia.fi for this one and aud-stream-hitmix.nm-elemental.nelonenmedia.fi for the other.
