Deejay 4 Christmas

Deejay 4 Christmas sits in the tail of Italy's 400 entries. The tail is the part of a directory that goes missing first, and it is the part worth keeping: the head of every country's list is the same handful of national broadcasters, and everything that makes a dial local is behind them.

Deejay 4 Christmas is the only station in Italy whose first tag is christmas songs, out of 400 with pages here. Tags come from the broadcasters themselves, so this says the station describes itself in a way no other entry in Italy does, which is a narrower and more honest claim than saying it is the country's only christmas songs station.

No bitrate is recorded against this stream. It is a common gap: the value is scraped from the stream's headers and plenty of servers do not send them. Press play and your browser will tell you more in two seconds than the field would have.

This one is HLS, a segmented format rather than a single continuous stream. It is worth knowing because the failure is specific and fixable rather than a dead station: the address works, the browser just cannot open that shape of address unaided.

19 of Italy's entries are served from 4c4b867c89244861ac216426883d1ad0.msvdn.net, 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.
