Music from earth

This is one of the quieter entries in the Netherlands' listing, at 287 of 302. Stations at this depth are usually community, religious or single genre broadcasters rather than national networks, and the country's numbered pages are the only route to them.

Music from earth has a zero in the directory's open count. It is the least interesting number on this page and the one most likely to be misread, so it is worth being plain: it measures traffic through radio-browser, not audience.

The station's leading tag is dutch music, shared with 4 other entries in the Netherlands. It is a well populated tag here without being one of the country's defining ones, which is a common and unremarkable place for a station to sit.

At 320 kbps the stream is on the better side of the Netherlands' dial, where the median is 192 kbps. Not dramatically so, and bitrate is only one of several things that decide whether a stream sounds good, but it is the one the directory records.

The stream is served from server-28.stream-server.nl:8922, which no other entry in the Netherlands uses in this snapshot. Nothing else in the listing shares its fate: if this address stops answering it is this broadcaster's own outage, and if it plays, it plays.
