mmm how could we say it the nice way? Shut up and go? You've got 8 posts.. all of them in this thread, who are you? A company rep?
Of course pivos does support XBMC just to win money.. they are a company after all. But they are making it the correct way, sharing the changes they do to the XBMC sources, as required by the GPLv2. You are allowed to sell GPLv2 SW as long as you share the sources, that's the deal. Others that do or did it in the past include company's as big as linksys.
About the plugins and the content, I see your point. Yes, it can be used to play illegaly downloaded content. And a knife can be used to kill. And now what? We could also ban the internet, since it can be used to download that pirated content. Or even forbid computers. Yes, that's stuppid, as are your statements.
That's my last post here, so good luck. If you are not working for the company yet, I hope that such a loyal user as you gets some thank you from them..
