Folks,
I've been an avid Linux user for a while and knew about XBMC for a period of time.
I finally decided to give it a whirl and am really enjoying it.
However, I have just a few queries about it.
I'm not hosting any personal data or streaming data(unless something is being streamed without my permission, maybe I should run a tcpdump to see the outgoing traffic...but I digress).
After doing a brief internet search, I was able to install some repos that stream episodes/movies that are newish in nature.
#I'm not downloading anything
#I'm not storing any contentents locally except my own pics etc.
#I'm only streaming shows/movies
#How much trouble can i get into?
#Has anyone had experience with this?
#Will an ISP warn me prior to anything?
I am just looking for experiences/answers.
I've never overdone torrents or anything in the past so it's a issue that's bothering me a bit.
My question is regarding the legality of me doing this. Obviously I'm in the states and am *extra* cautious since...technically speaking...I am downloading streaming media to memory. **Swear to God, this is no drug based paranoia i'm just a bit worried**
