the paid version is still Free and Open source. In this case free stands for Free as in Free speech and not as in Free beer.

Also none of the Free or Open source licences prevent you to sell the compiled software. Hell, most of the Open source licences don’t even prevent you to close the source code (Mozilla, MIT, etc.) it’s only the GPL and a few others that mandate that the source code must be made available on request…

Tracking stuff came as soon as you could communicate asynchronously with a server, really. It became widely known and a plague in the 10s but it started as soon as Ajax was available. Keep in mind that Google and most of the websites were free and ads driven almost from the start because that was the only way to create a critical mass of users.

Why limit yourself to seized data from the US only if hosted in the US if you can buy data from all over the world. In some respects that is a very smart move, in some other is deplorable and arrogant.

You are missing PPAs from the list even though it needs some attention on which PPA is being used. I used to use the when I was on Mint.

To be honest, the minimum you really need for a colourful website is just HTML and a dash of inline CSS, especially if you want to recreate that nostalgic early internet type of feeling. JavaScript is very much optional.

In my opinion you should start easy, understand how it all clicks together, especially HTML and then start building, and eventually rebuilding, on top of it after you have grasped the basics. Most people gets scared by HTML, CSS and JavaScript because they are usually presented together as if you couldn’t use one without the others, but you most certainly can.

Just my 2 cents.

I think that the start was a PCMCIA or PC Card.

high costs server side, poor quality of the videos, poor-ish internet connections, not enough powerful cell phones, etc. They were ahead of time. They achieved a decent success in the US but not much outside of it because of much of the reasons listed above.

I didn’t see it in the comments but I am very happy with Podcast Guru om android.

Bandcamp is a nice alternative, but much more limited to smaller artists and labels.
