Often addons only focus on one aspect of enjoyment for your HTPC. You have addons that excel at bringing you the best movies, such as the Velocity Kodi Addon, and plugins that are amazing for sports, such as the Kodi SportsDevil Addon. However, some addons are good at many things at once, and this is the case with the Kodi Castaway Addon. After you add Castaway to Kodi, you will be able to watch live sports and on-demand sports, as well as live TV from some good sources. However, the addon is organized in such a way that, while everything is set in order, it's not clear what content you will get from a link, until you open it.

Nevertheless, the addon is rich in both Live TV content and sports content, which means you could use it alongside some of the 10 best Kodi sports addons if there's content you can't find in other addon options. All in all, the Kodi Castaway plugin is very useful and offers good content, so you would do well in adding it to your HTPC. How do you Add Castaway to Kodi? We tell you below:
