Answer» Perhaps I haven't looked in the right area for this topic but I couldn't find anything on the forums.. Anyway I never heard of this product and their claims seem to good to be true. And the saying goes if it sounds etc., etc. I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with KODI? Here is an example of what I came across. APPRECIATE your thoughts. overthehill _______________________________________ __________________

Kodi itself is just a piece of media player software. Whatever that listing is for appears to be some sort of complete setup based around it. If it is promising to give you all those paid services for free, it's illegal and should be avoided.There are some negative things being sid about KODI. Quote Beware Of This Individual For anyone dealing with KODI / XBMC software at any level, city prepaid, OMNI box tv, or Valuenet internet company at ... please be cautious about this certain individual. His name is Richard P. Holder, and in our personal opinion, he is a scum and experienced scamer. He will approach you with the promise of doing business with you on behave of a fake company called ValueNet for you to program boxes with KODI / XBMC software. http://www.ripoffreport.com/r/valuenet/chicago-illinois-60604/valuenet-richard-p-holdermatara-d-fisher-omnibox-city-prepaid-valuenet-omnibox-tv-ric-1209200
Of course, one bad report does not mean anything. You can do your own search and find a number of strange things. It would seem that the service they offer is kin to torrent download. No, not the same thing. But with the same disrespect for copyrights. You can legally watch movies and TV shows for about $100 a year over the internet, plus the cost of the Internet service. This is much lower that what you pay for cable service. Still, you can just put up an antenna and pay nothing. Thanks Geek and camerongray
Yes these "media players" are supposedly preloaded and trouble free. They even offer 3 or 4 different models from like $130-$200. Well, I wasn't ready to run out and buy one but now if I run it will be in the opposite direction.
Thanks, Guys. overthehill
PS. Geek; you mention Movies and TV online. Do you have any suggestions as to preferred sites for this? Putting up an antenna is not the answer (been there, done that) and because my cable bills are sky high and being on a fixed income I'd just love to save some money. Re: TV and movies over Internet. If your Internet service is good, you can watch TV episodes, Movies and Morning shows with a paid substitution to streaming sites that have permission to show copyrighted entertainment. HDTV quality requires 5 to 10 Mbps. Regular TV about 2 to 3 M bps. The TV networks themselves offer programs. ABC, CBS, FOX and NBC and others. Other good sites are: Amazon, BBC AMERICA, Crackle, Fandor, Hulu, Netflix and SnagFilms.
You can Google these. Here is the site for Crackle: http://www.crackle.com/
All of the above are legal and safer that the subject of this thread. So, the reader should consider the proven service of the above sites and stay sway from empty promises. Thanks Geek Well I have Netflix and Crackle for movies which is enough for me. But looks like I'm stuck with cable for the winter anyway because of football. Too bad that we can't just choose the channels that we want. Anyway I keep hearing (starting Mar.2016 supposedly) that the CRTC (Canadian Radio-tele- vision and Telecommunications Commission) is forcing TV providers to let the customer have more choices as to what they choose to watch.We'll have to see how that plays out? overthehill
http://www.theglobeandmail.com/report-on-business/crtc/article23541572/Yes. That kind of idea has come up before. Here is a report about FCC. http://www.attpublicpolicy.com/video-policy/hey-sports-fans-fcc-tells-cable-companies-to-play-fair/ QuotePosted by: Bob Quinn on January 20, 2010 at The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) gave sports fans a reason to tailgate today by adopting rules to bring sports programming to more video providers. Ultimately, this means consumers will have more choices in how and from who they receive programming they want. When the cable TV firms play fair... pigs will fly! Well Geek we'll see if anything changes here in March overthehill
