Problems with Real Debrid

There are several issues with Real Debrid. To start, it provides very little value to Kodi users who use authorized sources, but it provides a lot of incentive to those seeking pirated material.

The second issue is that providers do not take into account the fact that many people operate on limited data plans and would benefit from having access to premium channels

And lastly, it costs money. This is a good way to get Real Debrid’s customers into trouble. They don’t link to copyright-infringing files, but they do offer other movie sources.

This is a contradiction that Kodi users need to know about before they pay for Real Debrid.

Simply put, you may invest your money more effectively by purchasing a subscription to one of the several high-quality streaming services accessible. For example, Netflix costs just a few dollars extra per month and is entirely legal.
