What are kodi boxes and what legality do they have?
Table of contents:
Although the Kodi media player for Android is a very popular application, many of you have asked us to address the issue of Kodi boxes, their operation and to what extent it is legal to use them to avoid cable television providers.
What is Kodi?
Before talking about the Kodi pits, let's first see why it is called Kodi.
Formerly known as XBMC, Kodi is an open source media player, which acts as a centralized hub for all media content on a device. It also allows you to watch live television thanks to its support for the most popular backends, such as MediaPortal, MythTV, NextPVR, Tvheadend and VDR.
The Kodi software can be used on any platform, be it Windows, Mac, Linux, Android or iOS, and is capable of playing almost any multimedia format, in addition to having support for multiple extensions, such as YouTube, Hulu, Spotify, etc..
What is a Kodi box or TV-BOX?
A Kodi box or box is a standalone device that runs Kodi software and connects directly to your television or monitor. The boxes or tv-boxes have a full version of the application pre-installed and are ready for use. All you need is a power cable and an HDMI cable.
Some boxes are specifically designed to run only Kodi software, while others have been modified to run other platforms as well. In fact, Kodi works on the Amazon Fire TV, on the Chromebox, Google Nexus Player, NVIDIA Shield and many other devices.
Is it legal to have Kodi at home?
In general, no one is going to tell you anything about using Kodi at home to watch pirated movies or listen to music you didn't buy. There are Kodi boxes that are sold directly "Fully Loaded" or completely full, so they bring all the possible accessories that will give you access to a large amount of illegal content, but, even so, nobody is going to say anything to you, as a user. The only one who could have problems with the authorities is the supplier of these modified boxes.
In short, both the application and the Kodi boxes are legal, but the boxes that come pre-installed with all kinds of accessories with access to illegal content can not be kept at home, theoretically.
