That may be true but the license thing was dishonest because no one was really unlicensed in any way. That is like saying I could rake in a lot more money committing fraud than conducting legitimate business.

In theory could you not use a prepay card unless it reserves a charge for the theoretical full amount up front?

Turns out you can make more money by reducing usability and user choice in an entrenched product because hardly anyone will baulk and jump ship to a different product.

We are walking talking general intelligence so we know it's possible for them to exist, the question is more if we can implement one using existing computational technology.

It's exactly a monopoly for the chosen ones, gate keeping at its worst. Anything that isn't blessed is going to be a bit more effort to get working, but I wouldn't say Kodi is unsuitable for the average user on the grounds of the widevine module though, the DRM module extraction is automated when installing a plugin that requires it.

But if he had to go with a forgettable game he wouldn't have remembered it.
