Spoon Radio - Alternative Rock

Spoon Radio - Alternative Rock ranks 30 among 126 stations in Switzerland. High enough that the country hub carries it in its own tables, and far enough from the head that the neighbours below are a genuinely different set of stations from the famous ones.

The directory records no language for Spoon Radio - Alternative Rock. That gap is common and it is upstream of this site: broadcasters fill the field or they do not, and roughly a third of the stations with pages here have left it empty. It means the station appears on its country hub and not on any language shelf, which is the one place the omission costs it.

128 kbps matches Switzerland's median almost exactly. Most stations cluster here because most of them are using the same handful of hosting providers with the same default settings.

The format here is AAC+, against a listing for Switzerland 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 straight from spoonradioalternativerock.ice.infomaniak.ch, an address unique to this entry in Switzerland'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.
