<p class="p">Xiph.org is a non-profit organization, which develops and promotes the OGG audio format.
        It also hosts a list of ICEcast streaming stations (ICEcast is the non-commercial pendant
        to the SHOUTcast server.)</p>
<p class="p">This channel is somehwat easy to read for Streamtuner2, because the source data is already
        provided as &lt;XML&gt; file. (Internally we're using a caching service, which pre-converts
        that into JSON lists. The Xiph-org JSON API isn't really working yet).</p>
<p class="p">However, it lacks some essential informations like station homepages and listener numbers.</p>
<p class="p">Xiph also uses the .xspf format, instead of .pls stream links</p>

<dd class="terms"><p class="p">The bitrate of an audio stream determines the music quality. Many Xiph streams have simple
    and low quality microphone sources. To filter these out, and only leave high quality music
    stations, you can therefore set this option. OGG starts to sound well with 96 kbit/s (whereas
    MP3 often requires 148 or 192 at least).</p></dd>
