Reading the streamComputed from the directory record of 4 Oct 2026

Position 27 of 67 puts this station in the middle of New Zealand'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.

The open count against The Edge is three, which is enough to know the stream has been played through the directory and not enough to compare it with anything. Small counts are the normal case out here, and a ranking built from them separates stations by luck as much as by interest.

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 is served as an HLS playlist, which is the format broadcasters use to switch bitrates on the fly and the one a plain browser audio element will not open. Nothing is wrong with the station; the player on this page simply cannot follow that kind of link without a library. The extension carries one and handles it.

Its audio comes from digitalstreams.mediaworks.nz. Five other stations in New Zealand stream from the same host, which is a smaller sharing than the big platforms and often means the same people run them all.

These are counts of what people did inside the public radio-browser catalogue and the apps that read it, over the whole life of the entry. They are not our own figures and they are not an audience measurement: most entries in this catalogue sit under five all-time plays, so a small number here means the catalogue has little to say about this station rather than that nobody listens to it.

Broadcast by The Edge. Stream served directly by the broadcaster. Their own site is at www.theedge.co.nz.

Station details come from the public radio-browser directory and are reproduced as recorded there. If you run this station and something here is wrong, or you would rather the page did not exist, write to us from the support page and we will fix or remove it.
