Dimensione Suono Soft

Dimensione Suono Soft is at 109 in a listing of 400. Read the rank as a rough position rather than a standing: the click counts in the middle of a long national list are close enough together that a handful of opens moves a station several places.

Dimensione Suono Soft shares its leading tag, soft adult contemporary, with one other Italy entry. Across every country the directory has 5 stations leading with it, so the rail below is mostly a trip abroad.

At 65 kbps, this sits below most of Italy's listing, whose median is 128 kbps. 70% of the country's stations reach 128 kbps or better, so the dial around it is mostly higher.

The format here is AAC, against a listing for Italy 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.
