Should a newbie start with affiliate marketing or adsense?
I have zoomed in on 3 areas: Adsense or affiliate marketing of digital or physical products? There seems to be more people teaching affiliate marketing of clickbank products to newbies. However, it seems some who started with that said that they wish they had started with physical products.
The "longevity" of good adsense sites that call for minimal maintenance once setup also interests me very much.
Would anyone care to comment? Thanks!
[EDIT] Wow! thank you, everyone, for chipping in to offer your views and expertise! Now I have more questions after all the suggestions.

1) It seems that the danger of the Big-G kicking you out of their Adsense program is very real, however, if that happens, can't the same adsense websites join other alternatives such as Bidvertiser and AdBrite? I would reckon the level of income can be maintained somewhat if traffic is not affected and Big-G does not de-index the sites?
2) How does one build a list if starting with Amazon? Is it by offering some tips and advice about the niche that the potential buyers are eyeing? I can't get started yet now because I have to first educate myself about the How-To's on building a list from Day 1!
