Magic FM Romania

Position 4 of 216 in Romania. 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.

Magic FM Romania has 30 recorded opens in the public directory, which is a real number by the standards of this data set. Most entries never reach double figures, so a count at this level means the stream has been found and played repeatedly by people using directory clients rather than the broadcaster's own site.

Magic FM Romania has no language recorded in the directory. We do not infer one. Guessing from the country would put every station in Romania on the same shelf regardless of what it broadcasts, which is exactly the kind of filled-in blank that makes a directory untrustworthy.

The stream is 80 kbps where Romania's median is 128. Below the country's middle, which usually points at an older encoder or a deliberate choice to stay light, and matters far more for music than for talk.

The format here is AAC, against a listing for Romania overwhelmingly made of MP3. Both play in a browser; the difference shows up in how much quality survives at a given bitrate, where AAC has the advantage at lower rates.

Its audio comes from live.magicfm.ro. Two other stations in Romania stream from the same host, which is a smaller sharing than the big platforms and often means the same people run them all.
