Cutting the cable, lets talk options and media setups

For those of you with SlingTV (or thinking about SlingTV) the new AirTV box is out now. It integrates OTA programming with SlingTV programming, plus access to the usual suite of Android streaming apps. It's a very interesting concept that got a lot of good press at the expos.

Mohu Leaf 50 Amplified Indoor HDTV Antenna Multi MH-110584 - Best Buy

did u put it in the attic and connect it to the splitters for the different rooms?

where do you buy the kodi box? and once i do that do i need the different accounts (hulu/netflix/prime). is kodi a one time buy or monthly fee?

just trying to learn about all the options.

For beginners, stick with the Fire Stick. It's reliable, backed by Amazon and because of it's popularity there will always be good, unofficial "support" for any sideloaded apps like Kodi. You don't need Amazon Prime, but it can make the experience better. I decided to try it out during a free 30-day trial and bought it at a promotional price when Shakespeare in Love won an award. I justify it with the free shipping and cheap prices of stuff I buy anyway, but no longer have to go out and visit a store to acquire. It's less than a Netflix membership.
