(Kodi) Basically similar to using Netflix


This is not true at all.

Everything on Netflix works every time.

Some things on Kodi work some of the time.

It's a big pain to install and maintain, it's not organized at all, it's the wild west and OK if you like hacking around on your computer or device, but it's nothing like Netflix, Amazon or other 'real' streaming service.

Yes, you can get everything you'd like for 'free', but you better be willing to work for it in spending a great deal of time making it work, and then it's often in lower than low resolution.

cheers!

Well that depends. If you put something like Showbox on Kodi then in can be very much like Netflix/Hulu. Showbox is much more organized than most Kodi video streaming applications and and although you can use a secondary link, I have never had to use that feature as the primary one has always worked. It seems like Showbox has much more content than Netflix/Hulu and you can also favorite tv shows and movies. The only things I have found lacking in it is it doesn't make recommendations based on what you have watched (although if you choose a movie similar movies are shown at bottom), it doesn't organize movies by categories, and there is no autoplay next episode option when watching tv shows.

I'm not championing Kodi or Showbox and I actually have a Hulu account and a Netflix acount but I'm just showing it can be a bit more organized if you know how to make it.
