Amazon Fire Stick $40, loaded KODI and movie stream apps,

Install Exodus Addon Kodi - Best for Kodi

I use an antenna for local HD channels, network shows and news.

You can also buy Pre-loaded Amazon Fire Sticks on Craigslist
search 'jailbreak Fire Sticks' just plug and play.

MORE INFO:
An unlocked Amazon Fire TV Stick has almost every movie and TV show ever made available. No need for downloading and/or watching ads - everything is streamed and ad-free. You can find and watch almost any movie or TV show minutes after it is aired by its network. 3D movies and HD also available.

These add-ons are open-sourced and created by third party developers, who work on these as their hobbies. Some are constantly being worked on and some are not. So you may encounter intermittent in their functionality. In addition, this streaming device depends greatly on the availability of the video sources. So I am not responsible for any changes to add-on functionality or video sources. All content is streamed to your TV (nothing you watch is downloaded).
Device features a dual core processor which allows for fast and smooth content streaming and playback.

Sellers can literally do jail time on these...I personally would avoid it as digital fingerprints seem to last forever. I like free but not when it's a jailbreak... look back at Metallica going after Napster members. There is a precedent of artists going on the offensive and the content owners will wise up to the leakage unless they're Kanye West.

We have a Roku stick in our home gym and it's plenty. Espn was a nice surprise on the service. Supports our Netflix and Amazon accounts... buy it once and no subscription. Plugs in the hdmi and USB for power.

Living room is setting up with an xbone and parlor with the retired 360. I'm waiting for the right deal on a curved 3D Samsung smart TV before deciding if we want to let cable go even if just for a little while. The integration with kinect for voice/gesture control and live tv is perhaps enough to convince me to keep it.
