The more people that join the Kodi third party add-ons chat on social media the more things get blown out of proportion. Member numbers on some of the social media groups are at an all time high which leads to the panic and fear that the days of Kodi and getting all your TV and movies for free is over, but what did you expect from people that have never seen this happen before? For those like myself that have been engaged in the Kodi platform and all that, it can do will know that this is not new territory, that we have been here before and that eventually, the storm passes. There is no need for panic, these things do and will continue to happen just like they have in the past.
What has happened?
Dish TV is attempting to sue TVAddons and Zem TV for using/reproducing their content. The fallout of this lawsuit is that a number of the Kodi Addon creators have hung up their keyboards only this time...they mean it. Or do they? Of course, they don't mean it. These people are normal people and the only thing they have in their lives to make them feel significant or important is add-on development. They aren't walking away from that. What you will find happening is they will take a short break and return under a new identity ready to push out a new product. Even if they don't there are new developers ready to fill the voids. This is the cat and mouse game of piracy that has been running for years. It's like whack a mole, they hit one mole and another one pops up somewhere else.
Covenant = Exodus
The Exodus add-on is no longer being maintained by the developers. The developers of Exodus have just released the Covenant add-on. It looks and functions exactly like Exodus.
We highly recommend opening BUILDS AND UPDATES and doing a Fresh Install (Fresh Install will delete all of your favorites, Addons you have added, Real Debrid and BoomBoom TV username and password. This will remove the Exodus add-on and replace it with the Covenant add-on.
You are free to not install this update and to continue to use Exodus. However, over the next few weeks, it will get less and less sources and will eventually die. We highly recommend jumping on board with Covenant instead of sticking to a dying add-on.
IMPORTANT - Covenant was released less than 12 hours ago. It has a minor bug where it will crash Kodi the first time it is searching for sources for links. After this initial crash, it will work perfectly fine. The developers are aware of this and are going to push an update to fix this issue.
You are able to install Real Debrid exactly the same way you did in Exodus.
