peru cumbia

Out of 119 entries in Peru, this one ranks 9. The upper quarter of a national list is an interesting place to be: well known enough to have accumulated opens, not so well known that it is the station everybody already had.

No language is recorded against this station. The field is optional in the public directory and a great many entries skip it, so an empty language says nothing about what you will hear when you press play. It does keep the station off the language shelves, since a shelf built on guesses would be worse than a shelf with holes.

peru cumbia streams at 80 kbps, under Peru's median of 128 kbps. A lower rate is not automatically worse: speech carries perfectly well below the music threshold, and a station built for phones on a weak connection has a good reason to encode this way.

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

The stream is served from servistream.info:8330, which no other entry in Peru 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.
