How to play iTunes movies on Kodi

Kodi is an open-source media player that runs on Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS, Raspberry Pi and tvOS. While Kodi doesn't contain any content, you need to provide your own content from a local or remote storage location, DVD, Blu-Ray or any other media carrier that you own. To get started, install the version of Kodi for your operating system.

You can add movies you've downloaded from iTunes Store to your Kodi library, but you won't be able to watch them because of digital rights management. So you need to remove DRM from iTunes movies before watching them on Kodi.
