Rank 6 of 7 in Iceland. What that mostly measures is how many people have already found the station through this directory, which is a poor proxy for anything else and an honest one to publish.
352 kbps against Iceland's median of 170. Streams at this rate are the ones worth finding a good pair of headphones for, and they are uncommon: 78% of the country's stations reach 128 kbps at all.
The format here is AAC, against a listing for Iceland 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.
The stream is served as an HLS playlist, which is the format broadcasters use to switch bitrates on the fly and the one a plain browser audio element will not open. Nothing is wrong with the station; the player on this page simply cannot follow that kind of link without a library. The extension carries one and handles it.
The stream is served from ruv-radio-live.akamaized.net, which no other entry in Iceland uses in this snapshot. Nothing else in the listing shares its fate: if this address stops answering it is this broadcaster's own outage, and if it plays, it plays.

These are counts of what people did inside the public radio-browser catalogue and the apps that read it, over the whole life of the entry. They are not our own figures and they are not an audience measurement: most entries in this catalogue sit under five all-time plays, so a small number here means the catalogue has little to say about this station rather than that nobody listens to it.
Broadcast by Rondó. Stream served directly by the broadcaster. Their own site is at www.ruv.is.
