Metro Radio

Position 186 of 320 puts this station in the middle of Greece's directory presence. The middle is worth browsing precisely because the ordering has stopped sorting by fame and has not yet stopped sorting at all.

One recorded open in the public directory. That is a trace rather than a measurement, and it is the reason this page describes where the station sits rather than how popular it is.

The country page counts pop among its commonest tags, and this station is one of the 5 entries in Greece behind that count. Worldwide the tag leads 343 stations, which makes the rail below a very wide shelf.

At 64 kbps this is one of the lowest rate streams on Greece's dial, whose median is 128 kbps. It will hold a connection almost anywhere, which is the tradeoff being made.

The format here is AAC+, against a listing for Greece overwhelmingly made of MP3. Both play in a browser; the difference shows up in how much quality survives at a given bitrate, where AAC has the advantage at lower rates.

Its audio comes from stream.crete.ovh:8443. One other station in Greece streams from the same host, which is a smaller sharing than the big platforms and often means the same people run them all.
