What apps do you personally use on your android box? I use a racked version of spotify for adfree streaming, and stremio with some plugins for all tvshows. I used Kodi in the past but it tended to crap out on the box (its a mibox 4K). I would love to get some more apps for pirating content. Local content is usually a hard find.

    I’d never thought of having an “android box”. My HTPC (the device plugged in to the big tv) just runs ubuntu.

    We use VLC to play media from my home server via upnp.

    We use a browser to watch youtube stuff from an indivious instance running on my home server.

    I’ll admit the wife approval factor on this is rock bottom, but from my end it was just the easiest solution but has continued to “just work” for a long time now.
