Joyhits UK FLAC

Position 118 of 466 puts this station in the middle of the United Kingdom's directory presence. The middle is worth browsing precisely because the ordering has stopped sorting by fame and has not yet stopped sorting at all.

Among 466 stations in the United Kingdom here, this is the only one that puts dance hits first. The dance hits rail below therefore leaves the country entirely, which is the more interesting direction to travel from a page like this.

The directory carries no bitrate for Joyhits UK FLAC. The field is filled from what the stream's own server reports when it is scanned, so an empty one usually means a server that answers without announcing itself rather than a bad stream. the United Kingdom's stations that do report come in at a median of 128 kbps, for whatever that is worth as a guess.

Joyhits UK FLAC streams in OGG rather than the MP3 that most of the United Kingdom'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 joyhits.online, an address unique to this entry in the United Kingdom'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.
