N-JOY

Out of 1,409 entries in Germany, this one ranks 37. The upper quarter of a national list is an interesting place to be: well known enough to have accumulated opens, not so well known that it is the station everybody already had.

N-JOY has 45 recorded opens in the public directory, which is a real number by the standards of this data set. Most entries never reach double figures, so a count at this level means the stream has been found and played repeatedly by people using directory clients rather than the broadcaster's own site.

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

128 kbps matches Germany's median almost exactly. Most stations cluster here because most of them are using the same handful of hosting providers with the same default settings.

16 of Germany's entries are served from icecast.ndr.de, this one among them. A shared host means a shared fate. If this stream is silent, the fastest check is not this station's own site but whether its neighbours on the same platform are playing.

Their site is n-joy.de, a domain registered in Germany. Where a station's own address and its listed country agree, the entry is a little more trustworthy than one where they do not.
