While the Napster case was demonstrative of how an apparently benign and legal technology can still be found illegal depending upon its implementation by the user, the conundrum of KODI is more difficult.
In 2001, the United States Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit affirmed a district court's injunction against Napster, finding that the technology facilitated the widespread illegal sharing of proprietary content without the consent of the owners of the copyrighted material. Essentially, KODI add-ons are a loosely analogous version of turn of the century, peer-to-peer audio MP3 file sharing technology embodied by a company called Napster.
