NoLife-Radio

Among the 710 stations in France with pages, NoLife-Radio is around the halfway mark. Anything in this stretch is reachable from the country's numbered pages rather than from its front table, which is why those pages exist.

The open count against NoLife-Radio is two, which is enough to know the stream has been played through the directory and not enough to compare it with anything. Small counts are the normal case out here, and a ranking built from them separates stations by luck as much as by interest.

NoLife-Radio is the only station in France whose first tag is chiptune, out of 710 with pages here. Tags come from the broadcasters themselves, so this says the station describes itself in a way no other entry in France does, which is a narrower and more honest claim than saying it is the country's only chiptune station.

The stream is 96 kbps where France's median is 128. Below the country's middle, which usually points at an older encoder or a deliberate choice to stay light, and matters far more for music than for talk.

The stream is served from listen.nolife-radio.com, which no other entry in France 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.
