This. I have an AppleTV and a ChromeCast. I have a bunch of (legal) rips of the Simpsons. On the ChromeCast I have to load a single video in the Chrometab every time. The playback isn't always smooth. On the AppleTV, I drag VNC to the display, hit full screen and watch all day. The playback is smooth and hassle free. The ChromeCast is more portable, but not by much. If the AppleTV was USB powered I would consider traveling with it.
