Bitrate and audio format
What your station sends to listeners and which settings to use when you go live.
What listeners get
Your station streams MP3 at 128 kbps, 44.1 kHz, stereo. That sounds good on every device and works with every player.
When you go live
Send MP3 at 128 kbps, 44.1 kHz, stereo as well. A higher bitrate doesn't improve what listeners hear.
Data use for listeners
128 kbps uses about 58 MB per hour of listening.
