The Chromecast Audio was a wonderful device. I unfortunately lost all mine in a move but there’s been absolutely no way to replace them :-(

- ssl-3 2y agoThey're still out there. In the US, MSRP at launch in 2015 was $35. With inflation, that's worth ~$46 today. I see one on eBay right now (open-box, allegedly never used) for $60, delivered, in buy-it-now format. $60 is not an ideal sort of price, but it's not something that seems extortionist or anything compared to the inflation-adjusted price from 2015.
- addicted 2y agoTrue, but relying on old units available on eBay is not a long term solution.
- izacus 2y agoThere are companies out there that make similar devices now luckily (sadly they're more expensive :/ )
- applied_heat 2y agoIt is Probably just fine for the next 10 years. Chromecast audio are working great for me with my 70’s receiver and modern mini amp and Bluetooth speakers with line in.
- ssl-3 2y agoThat's irrelevant. A self-updating hardware/software combination from Google can never be a long term solution. Reliance on old units from eBay (or not!) cannot make that situation any better nor any worse.
