Please consider having SPMC include the “plugin.video.netflix” InputStream based native binary addon Netflix plugin for Kodi ‘agile’ fork.
This new open source Netflix plugin/addon is based on Kodi’s "InputStream" binary addon extension point that can serve as input stream for Kodi’s VideoPlayer " which is new since Kodi v17 (Krypton). The plugin/addon enables legal playback of DRM (Digital Rights Management) protected content without breaking the Widevine DRM distribution chain that Netflix uses to encrypt its video stream. Netflix account and subscription is of course required.
https://github.com/asciidisco/plugin.video.netflix
The plugin/addon is being developed by a couple of independent Germen developers lead by Sebastian Golasch (a.k.a. asciidisco on GitHub) and is currently being ‘beta’ tested by guys on the kodinerds.net independent German Kodi fan community forum. One of the developers (calling himself “Jojo”) hints that they might also be working on other legal Kodi plugins/addons for other streaming services , perhaps other streaming services that also uses Widevine DRM.

If you want to see it working, look at this video taken in a experimental LibreELEC with Kodi ‘agile’ build:

The addon is currently only tested with Kodi ‘agile’ builds because it needs features that are so far only available in Kodi ‘agile’ builds, an experimental development fork of Kodi found here https://github.com/FernetMenta/kodi-agile wroked on by a few Team-Kodi developers which includes features and functions not yet merged upstream into Kodi’s mainline master.
I am not the developer of this plugin/addon and I am in no way affiliated with Kodi or the developers of this addon, I have just stumbled upon it so just wanted to suggest it for inclusion in SPMC.
