Flava

Position 15 of 67 in New Zealand. 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.

Four 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.

Hip hop is the station's own leading tag and no other entry in New Zealand uses it that way. Worth reading as self-description: the directory takes tags as broadcasters type them and does not reconcile them.

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

Encoded as AAC+, one of the three formats New Zealand's stations use. The country page breaks all of them out with counts.

The stream address on this entry points at playerservices.streamtheworld.com, which is where 10 other stations in New Zealand 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.
