Help: fire stick / prime / Netflix - ginge191 - 25-01-2017 So, I've got an amazo fire stick, essentially making my TV smart. What I'm wondering, is it worth paying for prime or an alternative - Netflix? RE: Help: fire stick / prime / Netflix - Mattcheese31 - 25-01-2017 depends if you like watching tv lol, tbh i have both Prime and Netflix, some good stuff on both, Prime is good value as it pays for itself in free deliveries from Amazon in no time ![]() RE: Help: fire stick / prime / Netflix - cully - 25-01-2017 install Kodi and the exodus addon ![]() Free tv as long as you have a fast internet connection very easy follow a guide from Youtube RE: Help: fire stick / prime / Netflix - ginge191 - 25-01-2017 (25-01-2017, 07:59 PM)Mattcheese31 Wrote: depends if you like watching tv lol, tbh i have both Prime and Netflix, some good stuff on both, Prime is good value as it pays for itself in free deliveries from Amazon in no time Well, I prefer watching movies and series - Game of thrones is on my 'to watch list' .... RE: Help: fire stick / prime / Netflix - toseland - 25-01-2017 in all honesty i watch more netflix than i do sky... RE: Help: fire stick / prime / Netflix - cully - 25-01-2017 Game of thrones you say! quick search on kodi exodus finds ![]() ![]() RE: Help: fire stick / prime / Netflix - ginge191 - 26-01-2017 Ah! I may look into this! RE: Help: fire stick / prime / Netflix - tigerstyle - 26-01-2017 With Kodi being across every piece of mainstream media currently, in a very bad light, how long do you think it can last? Obviously a lot of cats are wrong as it's Kodi getting a bad rep not Exodus etc. But this seems way more prevalent than even the Kazaa stuff that got shut down fairly quickly! RE: Help: fire stick / prime / Netflix - Eeyore - 26-01-2017 I wouldnt recommend prime for video to anyone. Their music and video offerings are very poor. Apart from the grand tour ive watched possibly 3 films at best. It only becomes worth it because of the next day delivery... which im sure i could have lived without anyway.

I think Netflix has a lot more to offer. In regards to the stick, I use a Chromecast. RE: Help: fire stick / prime / Netflix - Midnightclub - 26-01-2017 Chromecast and Plex on your PC as a media server wins my vote..

Kodi is a free to use piece of software, it's not something you can 'ban' as essentially it's done nothing wrong. It's like blaming Windows for a computer playing the video. The software is open-source as well, so anyone can get their hands on the code and develop their own version of the program. The issue comes with the add-ons that link to material all over the web, those are the ones doing wrong but again are hard to shutter because they don't hold any of the media themselves, so if they feel any 'heat' the devs quickly shut down the project and open up a new one under a different guise. RE: Help: fire stick / prime / Netflix - Niall - 26-01-2017 I've got prime, Netflix and Now TV. Don't need anything else aside from Freesat. Prime is well worth the money and pays for its self in no time. It depends on the sort of TV you like but there is a lot of great box sets on there. Personally I don't like much of what's on Netflix but the missus is obsessed with some of the series on there lol RE: Help: fire stick / prime / Netflix - r3k1355 - 26-01-2017 Prime is ace, the free next day delivery has saved my ass plenty of times.

Yeah, that is what I said in my post... Definitely something the media are targeting in on though. ISPs already involved etc. RE: Help: fire stick / prime / Netflix - r3k1355 - 27-01-2017 ISP's will take one look at it and think 'f*ck that'. The actual content is hosted all over the web and constantly moving around, no-way they can effectively block that. They are a business at the end of the day, they're not going to piss money down the drain in a vain attempt to block some episodes of GOF. It'll just end up like when they blocked The Pirate Bay, that clampdown coincided with the meteoric rise in streaming. I'd lay good money that more people are on it now than ever bothered with Torrents. RE: Help: fire stick / prime / Netflix - maxaret - 22-02-2017 We are not using amazon video so much now because the prices for some movies are horrendous,there are some bargains for sure but not as many as there used to be. RE: Help: fire stick / prime / Netflix - Dum-Dum - 22-02-2017 I can't find anything I want to watch on prime bar TGT, all the free films are well out of date and the TV shows just don't interest me. I'm seriously considering paying for 'Motor Trend on Demand' though, far more stuff I want to watch there for less money |
