Amor Solo Pop (iHeart Radio)

The name is not all brand. Amor is love, which says something about the programming that the entry's tags may not.

Position 36 of 444 in Mexico. The ordering is a click count and nothing more, but at this depth it still separates stations meaningfully, which stops being true further down the same list.

Acir covers 20 of Mexico's entries. Tags on this site are always the broadcaster's own first tag and never a second one, because a station tagged five ways would otherwise appear on five shelves and turn each of them into a tag cloud.

At 48 kbps this is one of the lowest rate streams on Mexico's dial, whose median is 128 kbps. It will hold a connection almost anywhere, which is the tradeoff being made.

AAC+ here, on a dial that carries three different formats. A mixed codec listing usually means a country whose stations are hosted in several different places rather than through one dominant provider.

The stream address on this entry points at playerservices.streamtheworld.com, which is where 103 other stations in Mexico are served from as well. Platforms of that size carry the long tail of a country's dial, and they are the reason a listing can look broken when it is one host having a quiet hour.

Of everything the directory lists in Mexico, the entry this page reads closest to is TUMBADO AL 100: Corridos y fusiones urbano-regional, so it is worth setting out what separates the two. The broadcaster tagged this entry amor, amor sólo música romántica, balada, balada en español, balada pop and baladas, which the other entry is not tagged with. The other entry carries the américa, cdmx, ciudad de méxico, corridos, corridos tumbados and entretenimiento tags and this one does not.
