Kodi is designed to act as a media center. The original idea was to install it and use on a PC as the entertainment hub of the home by connecting it to a big-screen TV and as such. It comes with specific features that make it quite capable for the role. It is designed to be legible on a TV when sitting on a sofa (10-foot user interface), and compatible with both remote control hardware and software. Kodi comes with several advantages that you don’t get with many other media players. It’s compatible with a very wide range of file formats and operating systems. And also, the fact that it is open-source in nature, its high profile and large base of programmers mean there’s a vast range of add-ons and skins or themes that are available for download to customize the software to one’s choice of detail.​KODI is also quite popular and apparently very good for watching ‘pirated’ copyrighted content for free.
