Open source software as you have already read refers to software that has a open source code for everybody who wants to see it and append to it.
It’s also for the people who are falling low on money and want software for cheap and also as they are free from the monetary hassles of Proprietary Software(PS)- I mean free from any legal implications over using it or distributing it. And also most of the times they are free of cost!!

Its also better for developing countries with low computer penetration and users not in mood or incapable of buying costly softwares as these can be easily modified as per the users demand with some local expertise. It can also be made available in some local languages as per the needs.
