Also, everyone is going to start making their own services and eventually it'll become cheaper to have cable for someone who wants a little bit of everything than it will be to pay for multiple services....hmmm...

"It also will launch an ESPN video streaming service in early 2018, including MLB, NHL and MLS content."

Fake news, ESPN has no idea what the NHL is.

I think Disney will, at least, be more successful at this than CBS All Access. Gonna be sad to lose Star Wars and Avengers though.

This. Instead of having one steam-like service that has virtually everything, it's all going to be spread across like 6 different channels for 6x the price per month to pay for all of them. Piracy will probably make a come back from this because no one wants to pay like $40+ a month for all this nonsense. They would want a simple consolidated experience

Yep. Multiple streaming services is fine, so long as they have most of the same things and are competing over quality and not exclusives. You beat piracy by being convenient, the harder things are for consumers, the less willing they are to do things legally.

This stuff is happening with anime too.

Everyone's splintering off into their own streaming services, and people are gonna say "fuck it" and start pirating again because nobody wants to pay $10 a month for like eight different services. These companies do it to themselves.

I think Disney can get away with something like this because of how big of a juggernaut they are. But this is leading to a bad precedent where every company is going to be doing their own streaming service and then we're going to see a major rise in piracy.

Yeah, we need more things like crunchyroll and funimation partnering up. Netflix handles anime terribly since they won't release things for months and Amazon goes around throwing money at Japanese companies to get exclusives and then puts them all behind multiple paywalls.

Okay, but Disney making their own streaming service with just Disney stuff, and not allowing it to stream elsewhere, doesn't help things. You're just stuck still using Netflix/Hulu for everything else but also having to pay Disney if you're interested in their stuff.

Netflix has done braindead things like remove star ratings, and needs a competitor, but the competitor should be in the same form of being a hub for tons of different types of movies/shows or else it's useless.

I don't even see how that is keeping them a float since most of their originals are pretty bad.

Let me rephrase, there's no reason to not use Kodi in 2017. Kodi box is just nice to have.

You can make Kodi look exactly like Netflix with the right add one and run just as smoothly too. It takes some research for sure but the pay off is worth it.

Hence why they've been investing so much in orginal content. The cable business model is dying. It's only the next step that every network gets their own streaming service. It'll eventually be full circle where you have to pay 70-80 a month to get all the content you want.

You won't be able to avoid picking streams if that's your gripe, but most of the video add ons save your spot even if you change what you're watching. I haven't had an issue with quality or buffering since a few versions ago.

Most of the UI stuff is available within whichever add on you're using. I use it on both a box and my android phone and I haven't had any problems. Which add ons are you using?
