  What do you think about Google not allowing iOS or Firefox to become cast sources, or FireTV to act as a cast target FireTV is not an open platform anyone can design for and use. It's closed and your app needs to be submitted through their dev shop.[0] I just opened firefox up and had no issue casting from it. According to the below support thread[1] you may need to enable a flag in the about:config page. Although I didn't need too. Does that piss you off, or are your feelings of outrage only limited to our own personal convenience? Nope. Amazon can and has support Cast in the past. They are the ones doing their best to block it, not Google. FireTV is not a free and open platform, Cast is. Great comment though..
