Aladin Radio Network

At position 26 of 41, this is one of the stations in Pakistan that almost nobody arrives at by browsing. That is the case for having a page at all. A station reachable only by knowing its name is a station most directories lose.

The open count against Aladin Radio Network is four, 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.

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

The gap here is large: 64 kbps where Pakistan's stations typically run 128. Rates at this level were designed for dial-up and for mobile data that was billed by the megabyte, and plenty of stations simply never changed the setting.

The stream is served from cc.vmakerhost.com, an address one other entry in Pakistan uses as well. A small shared host is usually a group of stations under one owner or one technical provider rather than a platform.
