Absolut Radio Oldie

Absolut Radio Oldie sits at 752 of 1,409 in Germany'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.

Among 1,409 stations in Germany here, this is the only one that puts oldies der 70er first. The oldies der 70er rail below therefore leaves the country entirely, which is the more interesting direction to travel from a page like this.

No bitrate is recorded against this stream. It is a common gap: the value is scraped from the stream's headers and plenty of servers do not send them. Press play and your browser will tell you more in two seconds than the field would have.

Absolut Radio Oldie streams in AAC while most of Germany's dial is MP3. Codec choice is mostly invisible to a listener, and it is one of the clearest fingerprints of which hosting provider a station uses, since providers default their customers into a format and few customers ever change it.

Its audio comes from absolut-oldieclassics.live-sm.absolutradio.de. One other station in Germany streams from the same host, which is a smaller sharing than the big platforms and often means the same people run them all.
