mine is working great

watched every game this season

movies movies movies

the one thing I have leaned is you have to update it often or you get a lot of failure notices

Same, we cut the cord years ago and only thing we pay for at the moment is Netflix just cause we like the convenience of it. But have a stick and a firetv with kodi on both. Like Rhody said it is kind of a pain in the ass at times as there are updates a lot. And it seems a couple of times a year the whole app needs to be redownloaded due to a new version being released. But can't beat saving a couple of thousand dollars a year in cable or satellite costs. I haven't found watching live NFL to be all that great on it though and usually do that through various websites through my xbone browser. But some people seem to have better success than me when it comes to that.
