With many TVs with built in youtube support and many other devices already connected to the TVs that have you tube, xbox, PCs, PS4, Wii, Roku, etc. Why would you buy it? Just so that I don't have to search what I am watching on my phone on my TV again? For the price this might still be worth enough to spend for that feature. But just trying to understand if there is anything else there is to it.
- scholia 13y agoThe scenario that Google presented was users doing stuff on their phones/tablets and then saying to themselves, "Hey, let's play this on the big TV screen." That's a different use case to Google TV/Xbox/PS4 etc. They made a lot of the fact that, with Chromecast, your phone/tablet works as a TV remote. Also, people who are already familiar with their phones/tablets don't have to learn a new UI etc. And it doesn't have to deliver a lot of value to justify $35....
