Re: Kodi boxes

Grinds my gears when people call them "kodi boxes" the popularity of xbmc...Ok I mean kodi(habit) has soared in the last year or so thanks mostly to the inexpensive Amazon fire sticks.

Been telling people about XBMC for years and nobody knew what I was talking about. I used legal adding like Justin.tv and YouTube. It was great to have this software in 2004 onwards on an Xbox, a machine much more capable than what it was originally intended for. I used to keep all my music backed up and it was my jukebox as it was hooked up to the speakers.

Suddenly everyone knows what it is. People selling various android products with kodi pre installed with plugins that allow for streaming illegal content. They give kodi a bad rep. Plenty of great legal addons. I used my Xbox back in day as a settopbox too streaming stuff using the tvcatchup plugin(which was legal, you had to have a TV licence). By all means look into kodi if you never used it before. Fantastic software.
