TMW Radio

TMW Radio is at 189 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.

Three recorded opens 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.

Italian is the station's language and the country's commonest, one of six Italy's listing records.

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

Where Italy's stations mostly use MP3, this one uses AAC+. Worth a line only because it is a difference, and because the country page's format breakdown is one of the quicker ways to see which providers a national dial runs on.

The stream is served from stream.tmwradio.com, an address two other entries in Italy use as well. A small shared host is usually a group of stations under one owner or one technical provider rather than a platform.
