Saying Goodbye to [OpenSubtitles.org](http://OpenSubtitles.org) API

I just received this email on 13 Nov 2023. Not sure if it was SPAM.

Any idea if this will affect the OpenSubtitles setting on Kodi?

Exciting news! [OpenSubtitles.org](http://OpenSubtitles.org) is undergoing a transformation, retiring the original [API by the end of 2023] Fear not, as this paves the way for the advanced [OpenSubtitles.com](http://OpenSubtitles.com)

From what I just read it means the Application Programming Interface key for .org will be replaced by a new API key for .com  
Just have to wait and get it when it’s released.

I got the same email and had your reaction. I attempted the “contact” form and the message was it wasn’t active yet. That leaves us with “wait and see” as the other responder noted.

Anyone have any thoughts on this? Somehow I stumbled upon an API key for [Opensubtitles.com](http://Opensubtitles.com). In Kodi, how would I apply that key to make it functional?
