Better to run a no-script extension on chrome which cuts out a lot of the noise on questionable streaming sites.
I use Kodi with a dedicated laptop connected to the TV via HDMI and a wireless keyboard on the couch. That's about as uncomplicated and reliable setup as you can get. I went from about 100 Kodi addons to about 20 now that I have learned something about Kodi. What's also amazing is the amount of free, legal (cleared) content you can access. If I VPNed I'd have even more, but I am stuck on the principle of no payments (aside from the Internet connection). After all if we pay for a VPN we might as well pay for the cable.

Locast in the US is very interesting, it's slightly different from Aereo (non profit) USTVNow and CBC Gem work very well for me and I watch a lot of NFB stuff and Youtube through Kodi (access my subscriptions)
