Piano Worship

Piano Worship sits at 281 of 471 in Russia's listing, in the body of the list rather than at either end. This is where most of a national dial actually lives, and it is the part a country hub's first fifty rows never reach.

The open count against Piano Worship is two, 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.

The christian corner of Russia's dial is three stations deep in this snapshot. Small clusters like that are usually the most rewarding thing on a country page, because they are what the national broadcasters at the top of the list are not.

256 kbps against Russia's median of 128. Streams at this rate are the ones worth finding a good pair of headphones for, and they are uncommon: 53% of the country's stations reach 128 kbps at all.

Piano Worship streams from s.ruworship.ru:4045. No other station in Russia is served from that address, and across the whole directory it appears one time in total.

Of everything the directory lists in Russia, the entry this page reads closest to is Радио Новая Жизнь, so it is worth setting out what separates the two. The two streams are served from different addresses, s.ruworship.ru:4045 for this one and nlradio.stream for the other. This one is encoded as MP3 and that one as AAC, which is a difference a browser can hear about before you can. The directory puts this stream at two hundred and fifty-six kilobits and the other at three hundred and twenty. The broadcasters publish at different addresses of their own, ruworship.ru and nlradio.net.
