Heart 90s

Heart 90s belongs to a run of five entries in the United Kingdom that share a name and differ by decade. This one takes the nineties, and that is the fact to hold on to when the listing shows you several of them in a row.

Out of 466 entries in the United Kingdom, this one ranks 6. 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.

With 111 opens recorded, this is one of the directory's heavily played streams. That is the strongest thing the public data says about any station, and it is still a measure of traffic through one directory rather than of audience.

The stream address on this entry points at media-ssl.musicradio.com, which is where 26 other stations in the United Kingdom are served from as well. Platforms of that size carry the long tail of a country's dial, and they are the reason a listing can look broken when it is one host having a quiet hour.

Heart 90s publishes at heart.co.uk. The domain's country code is not the country the directory files the station under, which happens often enough with hosted stations and diaspora broadcasters to be unremarkable, and is still a difference this page will point out rather than hide.
