Zine Bladi

Position 17 of 45 puts this station in the middle of Morocco's directory presence. The middle is worth browsing precisely because the ordering has stopped sorting by fame and has not yet stopped sorting at all.

Broadcasting in Arabic, alongside most of Morocco's other entries. The country page breaks the remaining three languages out with counts, which is usually a quicker read of who lives somewhere than any summary.

The stream is 96 kbps where Morocco's median is 128. Below the country's middle, which usually points at an older encoder or a deliberate choice to stay light, and matters far more for music than for talk.

Where Morocco'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.

Zine Bladi streams from asmaki.ma:8000. No other station in Morocco is served from that address, and across the whole directory it appears one time in total.

Their site is radiolive.ma, a domain registered in Morocco. Where a station's own address and its listed country agree, the entry is a little more trustworthy than one where they do not.
