Methodology
Counts reflect channels currently flagged live in the Sporio directory and refresh hourly. Sporio is a discovery directory for publicly available live streams — it does not host, record, or broadcast any content. A channel is counted once, under the country and topic it is catalogued in. Figures move as streams go on and offline, so a citation should include the date shown above.
