I bought a new Pi 3 Model B to use as a Kodi media centre. I based my Micro SD card choice on this tutorial:

...and I bought the SD card recommended in the tutorial: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008RJU4R0/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B008RJU4R0&linkCode=as2&tag=diglivroo-20&linkId=FAZETLSC5G3GW573

However, I cannot boot my Pi and now think this card might not be supported? Can anyone confirm and recommend me a good SD card which is definitely compatible?

The SD card you have bought is indeed compatible. Unless your card is defective or physically damaged (which you would have discovered when flashing it), it is not the source of your problem.

You may want to run a flash testing tool of your choice to be sure. Something like FakeFlashTest or H2testw would do.
