Agreed. At least XBMC had "media" in there. If they are going to use such meaningless names, they should just always stick "media software" after the name in all posts or something.

I kinda like how `KODI` comes from known visuals.

To me XBMC has always sounded more about XBOX than MediaCenter and it feels weird running it on the pi on pc when it has nothing anymore to do with XBox.
