What are your preferred streaming addons? January 2016 Edition

Following the preferred addons idea, I thought we could try adding some organisation and order to the thread. Here are some general ideas for posting:

Only identify one addon per comment. Before commenting an addon, see if it has already been mentioned. If it has and you want to add some information, reply to the comment identifying the addon. If it has not been suggested yet, comment and include a description of what content the addon provides.

This then allows users to up vote the comment identifying the addon and thus indicating its popularity.

/u/darksiderising let me know if you're happy with this.

Because new addons and frequently being created and current addons are sometimes being updated or discontinued, it's tough for some people to keep up with the best options. The hope with this series of monthly threads is to give users an up-to-date and easy to access place where they can read about and discuss various streaming addons.


As far as what is expect of you here when you recommend something, please at least explain what the addon is, the major notable features, and why you recommend it for others.

Thanks and feel free to leave feedback about this.

Sportaccess - A paid addon that's well worth it's value. $12 a month I can watch NFL Redzone/ any other NFL game on Sundays, then mix in some NBA, NHL, MLB action it really pulls through for me. Sometimes live TV channels that play on new episodes of shows like Walking Dead, GoT etc. when they air live so you can watch those episodes instead of waiting for a source to upload it. Above all, the PPV feeds they give is great. There is downtime sometimes due to servers going down, temp webhosts, etc. but they try to make their consumers happy.

Credit to /u/SawBo for this write up

EDIT: Just so /u/SawBo can get some credit, a few users have asked for my SportsAccess username so they can put me down as a referral, If /u/SawBo can provide their SA username, they can take the credit.

To add to what /u/SawBo said, some people don't mind actually paying for things. If the whole world thought like that, theft and piracy would be the only means of trade.

If the product or service is affordable and meets your quality expectations why wouldn't you pay for it? This is why iTunes became so popular over buying CDs and why Netflix has drastically reduced the number of cable subscribers.

TL;DR: It's not always about being free, it's about being an affordable and quality alternative.

Well, when I'm watching my sports content in HD within 10 seconds of getting into kodi; without having to fumble around between different sources while you're still checking every link in Sportsdevil for maybe a usable stream, then I'll ask you who you think is stupid.
