Is it legal to use Kodi?

That’s what’s particularly refreshing about this version of the Fire TV Stick. While Amazon Prime content is still its bread and butter (and dominates its menus) it's not as difficult to find content from other providers as it was before. For example, Amazon Prime offers Breaking Bad as a paid-for box set, whereas it’s free to watch on Netflix. If you search for it, Fire TV will suggest you watch it on Netflix first, with the option to buy it in a “More Ways To Watch” menu.

It’s still very much a device aimed at Prime subscribers though, and I’d certainly recommend signing up for the service to get the most out of it. With its new monthly subscription option (£7.99/$8.99 per month), it’s much more accessible now too. If you’re not interested in Prime, you may well find you’re better serviced by a Chromecast or similar streaming stick. https://cable404.com/products/amazon-firetv-st...
