These links usually point to the page with instructions on how to listen to a stream, not to the station's main homepage. We don't link directly to the stream because they tend to move around, because the stations like having people visit their websites, and this way you can compare Vorbis with the other legacy proprietary codecs many of these stations still use.

'''Note:''' an [http://web.archive.org/web/20040205045624/wiki.xiph.org/VorbisStreams old version] of this page from before [[WhatHappened|the server crash]] is available through the web archive. We'll slowly be verifying those links are still valid and moving them over.
