If you want the very best buy a Nvidia Shield next in my opinion is a Minix but even the cheapest will give you most international TV
You can load IPTV onto a laptop if you just want to try it but there are many suppliers of IPTV services
Give TVTechnology a ring or look on the website it is on this forum

Would highly recommend Netbox, he will give you a demonstration with no pressure. And highlight all of the features. Friendly and informative .

We have had a netbox we have 8mb internet there is no pressure when ordering and he does give a demonstration. We have had ours for nearly a year, For watching box sets and the latest films I would say it is very goof with the odd amount of bufering. The netbox is only as good as its apps and one of our favourites is no longer in use the guarantee does not cover the apps, however there are more to choose and the quality is very goody we have taken our net box back for repairs and this was fixed for us with no problems we have also spoken to Harry when we have had problems For live TV it has t been so good infact I would say as much as useless with lots of buffering and freezing this did stop us from watching the World Cup. However fibre optics has recently been installed in our neighbourhood so we are thinking of changing as it will not cost us any more than what we are paying, but ha e been told by other users that we may still get the buffering but will wait and see. If you were to ask would I buy again I would say yes as box sets and films is my main enjoyment if you want live TV get a big Satellite dish

I’ve had Netbox for a couple of years and rarely use it even with 50mb fibre optic download it’s slow sometimes and still get buffering. I’m planning on getting a box from Lee Digital now after having a demo at home it’s cheaper than Netbox and better quality for a one off payment of around 160€ you can also have an added family package for an optional annual subscription

Netbox is using Kodi, anything useing Kodi needs to use a number of applications.
Issues with live buffering on Kodi, in many instances are down to far too many people trying to watch the same channel stream and the hosting servers are not monitored (why would they be, they are free). So too many people hop on the streams & despite how fast your internet is, you get these type of problems with suffering or stuttering. Also faffing around with apps, which work one day, next maybe, maybe not. Call me old-fashioned, just want to turn on the TV and watch it, not go through a 'will it or won't it work' far too often, followed by more technicial updates.
Having dealt with Kodi and these type of sub free IPTV boxes, we stopped supplying/supporting this well over a year ago, as simply found far too many issues with stability and clients struggling with apps etc. Also, we noticed a deterioration in the overall stability of content, to how it had been 2-3 years previously.
A hosted service - which does cost, is different. With the right service provider they limit the amount of clients on a server, so you do not have the same type of issues, as the company is monitoring loading/use - also you don't have an app for this and an app for that - you have an integrated single software solution, much like Sky or Freesat, 7 day program guide, catch up services, on demand video content - all one piece of software.
So, as with all these things, you pay you money and you get the type of service you pay for. For me Kodi is ok for the odd free film or box set, but ran out of patience messing around with applications and things not loading, too many people also said same - we have over 3500 people in our TV community (http://www.facebook.com/televisiontechnology) and use that as a springboard to listen to clients. Most did buy into Kodi a few years ago, though ALL of our clients eventually moved away from this into a better integrated solution.
