Many people associate KODI with piracy. Being an open source multimedia player, it allows any developer to implement a plugin or add-on that infringes copyright rights. But there is also a lot of legal content that we can see without any kind of moral dilemma. And that is precisely the type of content that we will "gut" in today's post.
Next, we take a look at the best legal KODI add-ons to watch series and movies via Internet. Valid for both Android and PC and desktop computers.
Is it legal to watch TV series and movies with KODI?
Most free-to-air television channels broadcast their signal over the Internet. What we are going to do with KODI is use the official online broadcast of these channels and other legal streaming platforms and free, to view them centrally on your mobile or PC. To do this, we will pull the official KODI add-on repository.
That means that in this list we will not find any add-on that houses premiere movies, series or programs from premium paid channels. Even so, I can assure you that the add-ons for KODI that we are going to mention have high quality content. In certain cases, real cinnamon sticks.
