From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

ePub is basically just a limited HTML page in a zip file (plus a bunch of metadata and CSS styles), and ePub 3 can contain audio and video elements embedded in the text, just like a webpage. With the most basic usage, it would just show up as an audio player in the middle of the text, no sync. But there is also a media overlay thing I haven't looked much into that looks like it provides sync.
