- amorphid 9y agoTo go a step further, Amazon no longer allows one to buy a Chromecast on Amazon.com. This alone makes me mad at Amazon.
- guyzero 9y agoAnd the reason they used to give is that "Chromecast doesn't support Amazon Prime Video and that's confusing for users" - well guess whose decision that was?
- piyush_soni 9y agoThat's misleading to say the best! It's clearly the other way round and should be told that way.
- narrowtux 9y agoSame thing with the Apple TV. And they apparently said that Apple wouldn't let their app into the store which is BS, since they already have an app for Prime Video for iOS.
- raverbashing 9y agoAmazon also has a weird bureaucracy regarding where they ship to/from their Amazon Fire devices the "standard" one just ships to certain countries, the "basic" one only ships from certain places to certain other places
- jacksmith21006 9y agoPlus when you search for a Chromecast you get a Fire stick. Amazon is in the wrong here and glad to see Google push back.
- JoshTriplett 9y agoWhile it doesn't support streaming the video directly to a Chromecast, if you don't mind burning your battery you can stream the whole screen of the device to the Chromecast.
- b4lancesh33t 9y agoYou cannot any more. There is some kind of piracy protection that prevents it. I tried streaming the marvelous Mrs maisel to Chromecast via fullscreen recently and you can't see any video when you do, only audio.
