I'm a bit confused over whether PlayOn is legitimate software or just potential piracy masked as legitimate software.
The reason I question is because in their FAQ in one sentence they say "Upgrade to PlayOn Desktop to watch Netflix offline, watch Hulu shows and movies on your TV without subscribing to Hulu..." while then two questions down they state "Yes, you need to have a subscription with Netflix or Hulu or Amazon to record and download from those services."
Also, being able to record from the streaming services and then keep the content even if you cancel. Is this just a "gray area" legally?
On the one hand, I assume it's being treated as legal because it's promoted in Kodi's forums where typically anything pirating related is struck down. But I just want to be sure.
