Request ATV 2 Still useful?

[Vastrella]

I have a few questions: can I still jailbreak my Apple TV 2 and load KODI 14.2 on it? Is there a newer version of KODI that is still compatible?

Had my Apple TV 2 since it was released and used it for xbmc until the Amazon Fire tv was released. Now using the AFT2 which is perfect for kodi and easy to install everything I want plus apps..

This weekend I thought I'd just check out my Apple TV 2. The problem is you can't update kodi any higher then 14.2 plus certain plugins are not compatible with 14.2, also performance wise now, as you would expect it is well below what you get now with other boxes..

So yeah the Apple TV 2 is pretty much dead...
