Not really. With a VPN, the only change is that the networking between A and B now go through a tunnel with no changes to A or B. But if you get a seedbox, A is completely removed from the picture and you just have a connection between B and C.
dude, at least for tv/movies, just use ultra.cc (cheapest plan) and kodi can connect to it via https so no need for vpn and you don't even need to to download anything - super easy
Seems same level of complexity to me as adding a VPN into the mix.

The level of complexity is running a rsync cron job every X minutes to check if you have new files to transfer back home.
It's not exactly rocket surgery.
So it's more complex and slower.
I can wait for the extra 60 seconds it takes for my cronjob to check new files :D
