The Mighty Prawn Posted April 26, 2017 Report Share Posted April 26, 2017 I've been saying for ages the writing on the wall is a short life for kodi much like pirate bay etc - there's simply too much money at stake for it to continue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piebob Posted April 26, 2017 Report Share Posted April 26, 2017 Generally, people don't really understand Kodi and the article linked doesn't help build clarity. Kodi is simply a media player - a tool that can be used to play and stream media. You can use that tool either legally, or illegally.

Trevorevans Posted April 26, 2017 Report Share Posted April 26, 2017 (edited) Kodi still working for me, are you running krypton or an older version?. As for the article and the speculation of The lifespan of kodi I personally think the genie is out of the bottle now and if they manage to stamp out kodi then something else will soon follow. In reference to the 'criminal gangs' that are cashing in they are spot on, but as far as I'm concerned the criminals are the likes of 'sky' who suck up all the rights to popular tv and sports etc. then charge a fortune to view them. Let's face it broadcasters have brought this type of thing on themselves, if subscriptions were reasonable and they weren't ripping us off nobody would bother, they'd likely have more customers and your iffy android boxes and fire sticks wouldn't exist, at least not in the way they do now. They are strangling the goose that laid the golden egg. My grandfather was paying nearly £70 a month, and recently they wanted to put it up. He told them to come and get they're equipment, amazingly they were then able to come to an arrangement.

figgy Posted April 26, 2017 Report Share Posted April 26, 2017 Some other software and movie sites are being used more. Plenty about kodi online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davyo Posted April 26, 2017 Report Share Posted April 26, 2017 (edited) To be honest I think TV overall is finished.As if 5 channel of utter **** wasn't enough.I only watch one program and that's Life below Zero.I don't watch any sports or news (only find out what's happening in the world on PW). Lot of the young people at work don't even have a TV and say they have no intention of buying one. Edited April 26, 2017 by Davyo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piebob Posted April 26, 2017 Report Share Posted April 26, 2017 The article WAS aimed at the illegal use. Yes, exactly my point. But there are misleading and incorrect lines such as: "The crackdown on Kodi and other streaming services" - it's a perfectly legal media player / entertainment hub, not a streaming service "a number of Kodi arrests made earlier this year." - eh? A Kodi arrest? What's that? They imply that Kodi and illegality go hand in hand when, in fact, Team Kodi are trying to ensure the exact opposite is made clear. It's just very poor reporting.

clakk Posted April 26, 2017 Report Share Posted April 26, 2017 (edited) The was a warning Sky and Virgin were trying to block it through their internet and i know of 5 people through work have had Exodus blocked and deleated and have had to reinstall it .The subsequent reinstall is erratic but Sky want your movie money Edited April 27, 2017 by clakk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HDAV Posted April 26, 2017 Report Share Posted April 26, 2017 Kodi is no more illegal than owning a DVD player that's able to play multi region discs (remember them) The law will change, the tech will change law won't keep up, some unlucky people will cop a fine most won't...... if your not profiting from it you probably won't be effected apart from loosing out on the service....

figgy Posted April 27, 2017 Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 Sky and virgin are the baddies trying every trick in the book to make more money. Amazon Netflix to name two have all sorts of content for a lot less than sky and the other robbing **** charge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scully Posted April 27, 2017 Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 I got rid of Sky when I got rid of the tv, and twice since they've been back in touch trying to entice me with better deals and cheaper than I was paying this time last year. Weird eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
