I've tried this myself, but I've found that you really need to commit to mainataining your own media library, or to using pirate streaming services.
None of the big name legal streaming services work well through Kodi plugins due to the DRM on the content. Usually end up with stuff limited to 720p, stereo, no hdr.
I really wish the streaming companies would chill so it was easy to get a single unified interface for all my content in the highest quality available, but no, someone might pirate it in a marginally easier way then they already can!
Yeah, that's true, but I've been a sailor of the high seas for as long as I've had an internet connection. And all the *arr stack makes life really easy now. I do pay for the subscriptions, I just don't use them.
