Radio Bluesflac

Position 110 of 487 in Spain. 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.

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.

The stream is encoded at 1500 kbps, more than twice the 128 kbps median for Spain. Bitrate is the one quality figure the public directory carries, and on this entry it is unambiguous.

Radio Bluesflac streams in OGG rather than the MP3 that most of Spain's dial uses. Uncommon codecs are worth noticing for a practical reason as well as a nerdy one: browser support for them is thinner than for MP3 and AAC.

Its audio comes straight from audio-edge-jfbmv.sin.d.radiomast.io, an address unique to this entry in Spain's listing. That is the simplest case there is, and it is the one where pressing play tells you the whole truth about whether the station is on air.
