I've been looking through online playlist servers and wondering: Why shouldn't I host something like this as a static website? After looking around and not finding any tool that generates this, I'm considering making it myself, shouldn't be too hard.
I don't really need any features that require server-side processing, and static hosting would essentially reduce the cost to zero, for the amount of storage and bandwidth I would make of it (as well as possibly making it a bit faster).
- benkaiser 11y agoI guess it's persistence. You want to remember playlists across machines? no longer static You want to modify song info / update cover art? no longer static But gosh a static music player would be incredibly fast. Put it up on gh-pages and watch it fly!
