发帖数: 20761 | 1 YouTubers Killed TV Time (and Are Slowly Killing Kodi Too) By TV ADDONS
Staff | April 1, 2016 0 Comments
We regret to inform you that the TV Time addon has now been voluntarily
taken offline due to the misguided actions of certain YouTubers. In case you
never had the chance to use TV Time, it was literally the best live
television streaming add-on that our community has ever seen, it gave
reliable high quality access to all the major American television networks,
until we were forced to shut it down that is.
What happened to TV Time is not only a problem for TV Time, it is a problem
that plagues our community and threatens to destroy everything we’ve worked
so hard to create. Basically what happened is that we released the TV Time
add-on, people loved it, but then some YouTubers decided to bring negative
attention to it by making videos, and even worse, they revealed the source
of the content. Once they let the cat out of the bag and revealed the source
of TV Time’s content, the developer of the addon had no choice but to
close it for good.
We don’t deny that these YouTube videos may be useful to some, but they are
doing way more harm than good. Anything that is explained in a YouTube
video was already put into a guide on our web site long before. Bringing
attention to our add-ons on a mainstream site like YouTube (which is owned
by a major American media corporation) is just asking for trouble.
Kodi is being given a bad name and our addons are being killed by YouTubers
who feel the need to publicize it over the wrong mediums. It is one thing
for someone to visit our offshore-hosted web site and slowly discover Kodi
and our unofficial addons, but it is a whole other thing to upload a video
to one of the biggest web sites in the world, promoting Kodi as something it
is not.
If you look through our site, we explain how to install Kodi, how to install
add-ons, but we don’t go through and tell you specifically what you can
watch through these add-ons and how they work. Some things are better left
unsaid, if it works it works, there’s no reason to start making YouTube
videos about it and bring unwanted attention. It is the kind of attention
that YouTubers are bringing that causes sites to change their code in order
break our add-ons, and even worse, could potentially bring legal heat in the
future.
As for the open source Kodi media player itself, these YouTubers are making
it seem like Kodi was made specifically for use with addons, which it was
not. They are giving Kodi a bad name and are infuriating the official
development team as a result. Next time think twice about sharing the link
to a Kodi-related YouTube video and remember that the majority of these
YouTubers are simply profiteers, and not friends of our community. | F********y

盯着各大论坛，但凡是热帖必然跑不了。所以这个东西没可能做大，也就是geek自己玩
玩。 |
