You can't do this with a Firestick right from the box and the modifications required are a ahem "gray area" cough cough. Also those features appear and disappear at some point.

I've heard about them and it sounds like something that would be illegal.

They work fine for awhile then come new builds, different repositories, and even some developers who don't like other developer's work. There have even been big splits in that "community". Eventually one day this add-on won't work, it may not work for weeks or ever again... the next week another add-on quits. Then come "fresh starts" and it is all downhill from there. Some channels will disappear on a frequent basis.

The idea is ingenious but they need to settle on a standard and stick with it but they "update" it every few months or even faster and sometimes I see no reason why. I tried it for a bit and got frustrated with it.
