Iceland carries 30 entries and only 9 of them open over https. A ratio this low says the country's stations were registered a long time ago and have not been touched since, which is a maintenance fact about the directory rather than anything about the broadcasters.

The median stream in Iceland runs at 170 kbps and 78% of the listing reaches 128 kbps or better, 7 stations of 9. That is a comfortable profile: 128 kbps is the point at which music stops sounding like a compromise on ordinary speakers.

The format breakdown is lopsided: MP3 carries 89% of the reporting entries. Worth knowing mainly because MP3 is the most forgiving format for old players and the least efficient at low bitrates.

The directory's opens for Iceland lean towards the head of this table: the top ten rows carry about 100% of them between them. That is normal for a national listing, and it is exactly why the pages beyond this one exist. The interesting stations are usually not the ones at the top.
