    The Chromecast may be for some people, but not me. It has to have an internet connection to work. I travel a lot and sometimes there is no wifi or weak wifi signal.I swapped this out for the Microsoft Wireless Video Adapter which does not require an internet connection.

    The sales rep recommended this with my TV. It does not allow my to upload pics or music from my Pantect Murauder, nor does it allow me to control my TV, which was the only things I was interested in, It was very hard to install as the TV is on the wall and I am over 60. Sincerely, Tom P.S. I am not interested in putting my pics on google online.

    Roku does more for you doing the same things and yet you still have to pay Google for casting

    once again another failed attempt by google at copying Netflix. no one and nothing can beat Netflix. the all mighty blockbuster fell to its wrath. why should I or anybody pay for a piece of plastic that has requirements that of a supercomputer and commercial network speeds, on top of that of course you have to pay monthly fees. disappointed!

    This item only works with Netflix and u tube. It did not work with any of the video from CBS ABC NBC. Contacted Google very helpful and polite and they admitted there was a problem and they were working on it. They blamed the video players not being compatible with the chrome cast. The only things that worked was Netflix and of course u tube. They should not be selling or selling a half baked item that is problematic, if u want those two programs go for it at $29.00 it was on sale when I bought it. Roku apple tv far superior.
