Beats Radio

In Germany's ordering this is number 364 of 1,409, which is the middle of the list. The stations either side of it are a better guide to what the country sounds like than the head of the list is, because the head is the same few famous streams in every country.

German is the station's language and the country's commonest, one of six Germany's listing records.

The directory carries no bitrate for Beats Radio. The field is filled from what the stream's own server reports when it is scanned, so an empty one usually means a server that answers without announcing itself rather than a bad stream. Germany's stations that do report come in at a median of 128 kbps, for whatever that is worth as a guess.

Its audio comes from klassikr.streamabc.net. Four other stations in Germany stream from the same host, which is a smaller sharing than the big platforms and often means the same people run them all.

The broadcaster publishes at beatsradio.de, on Germany's own country domain. A national domain is a small piece of evidence that the station is what the directory says it is, since these are the harder ones to register from somewhere else.
