Not guilty plea in landmark Kodi box trial

Brian Thompson, a shopkeeper from Middlesbrough, has pleaded not guilty in a landmark case, challenging the legality of video-streaming set-top boxes that provide subscription content for free.

Mr Thompson is accused of selling "fully loaded" Kodi boxes, modified with software that allowed users to watch pirated content.
The case will be closely watched by other traders who sell similar boxes.
The trial will begin in May.
