Iraq's listing divides along two lines that are worth understanding before browsing. The first is religious: devotional channels form the largest genre, including several built around a single shrine or seminary, which is a pattern with few parallels in this index.

The second is linguistic. Kurdish appears in substantial numbers alongside Arabic, and the proportion is high enough to reflect a genuinely separate broadcasting sector rather than a minority accommodation. Iraqi Kurdistan sustains its own broadcasters producing in Kurdish for a regional audience, and they stream openly to reach a population dispersed across several countries.

News is the second largest genre, which is unsurprising given the density of competing outlets, and general schedules sit behind it.

Playability is good, with the large majority of Iraqi streams opening directly in a browser, placing Iraq ahead of several wealthier markets in this index on that measure.

For a viewer the Kurdish-language channels are the most distinctive part of this page, since Kurdish broadcasting is otherwise scattered thinly across several countries in this index rather than grouped in one place.
