as I said it takes a bit of getting used to installing what apps you want but it is worth it in the end

If you get one just PM me with your email address & I can send you all the step by step guides or videos. I use the Paradox build myself which has all the addons collated together so you don't have to do it yourself & everything is easy to find. [Also has some great music addons].
I prefer the boxes to a Firestick & you want one with 2gb rom/16gb ram.
The Beelink ones are decent & I also bought mine off Gearbest.

If you get an android box you might want to look at installing SPMC instead of Kodi, exactly the same in all respects but optimised for android devices so runs better.

Thanks very much Raven61 - I'm doing my research at the moment, and getting to grips with it all.

Thanks very much also to mikeeb and tedmus - I will let the advice 'sink in' and have a good look at what's available.

All your advice is much appreciated. I am looking forward to getting a box, and having more tv to choose from!

Not a problem gep wink
Ravens generous offer is one you should take up if you get stuck
The interface is exactly the same across all platforms (android/windows/apple)
Stick with your PC for now because you already have it
When you are comfortable with the interface then decide if you want to fork out for a box or firestick
I watch full box sets at once
Person of interest is one of my favs
Happy viewing wink

Yes, a very generous offer made by Raven61. As always, the help and advice on here is generous and great.

Sorry again for butting in on this post - I had been looking at the boxes/firesticks when the I read the post and thought it was a strange coincidence that saltytom had posted about the subject.

I have downloaded kodi and I am now exploring it.

Thanks again for the help and advice offered.

Yep brilliant for box sets mikeeb, just started watching Narcos series 2, and am watching Ray Donovan series 4.
