I was a long time user of the original chrome cast and decided it was finally time to see what was out there in terms of upgrading. Boy am I glad I did. Not only is the response time faster, picture quality impressive (4K), it even has voice recognition and can find what you ask for by searching all the apps you have installed. There is a little bit of setup involved to get all your on demand video apps passwords entered and setup, but once you do, you’re good to go. It has profiles for multiple users and it’s simple to use without having to configure a bunch of things (except initial setup). My biggest gripe with this is that sometimes I accidentally hit buttons on the remote which will stop what I’m watching and launch something else and there is no quick easy way (that I know of yet) to get back to what I was watching. I have to navigate back to the app and what I was watching and then it will resume from where I was. It would be nice if it had a swap button so you can watch one app, swap to another, then swap back to where you were and resume where you left off. Maybe that will come eventually, who knows, but I have learned to just keep my hands off as much as I can when watching something. It usually happens when watching YouTube because I frequently hold the remote to skip commercials and that’s when I accidentally hit the Netflix button or something else, but with YouTube there is a dedicated button there so I can get back to that quickly. The problem arises when watching Hulu or Vudu or some other app. That being said, I still love it and I’m glad to finally have a smart tv without having it built into the tv (although my tv does have built in apps but updates were recently discontinued and I can no longer use the native smart tv apps but that’s another story for another time). In the meantime, there’s google tv with chrome cast. It gets 10 thumbs up from me and four other people.

My cable bill due on the 24th of this month is $265. I've rationalized the amount thinking if I calculate it as a daily use fee then it's more justifiable. Sorry, but I've gotten to the end of my rope and want to cut my cable cord in favor of using much cheaper streaming as my main source of TV entertainment. So, what does it take. Well, it takes something like Chromecast or similar and a wifi source that allows for a strong internet connection. I'm a perfect candidate and hope to cut my bill in half even after subscribing to premium streaming services like Netflix, Prime and others. The way I look at it is I can always come back to cable if streaming gets to be too big a pain, but I'm optimistic.So, I've been playing with my new Chromecast and there are advantages that outweigh the disadvantages, imo. The signal reception is perfect, so I don't have any tech issues that are a constraint on picture quality. The only negative I've found to this point is navigation to the subscription services. There are a few extra steps, sometimes, navigating to a one service or another. Some of the account validation challenges can be a pain. Some services don't store cookies that could easily make authorization automatic. In my view, when you've successfully logged into a service through their validation process then that result should remembered forever on that device. I don't appreciate having to pull up a text or email every time I change to another streaming procider.Bottom line is Chromecast works exactly as advertised and I'm happy. I saved a couple of bucks because I don't have a 4k TV, but the high def is more than adequate. You'll need to survive a short learning curve because there are unfamiliar processes to figure out, but if a 73 year old like me can do it, so you can you. Honestly, for what Chromecast does it's a stone bargain. I just wish I had a cheaper source of wifi as a connection. That would be the cherry on top, so to speak. I suppose I could use my cell hotspot, but I only get one bar where I live. Everything is a compromise, right?Now, I'm going to get on something of soapbox and say a few things certain people might not want to hear. My cable company, which is the biggest in the country is simply gouging it's customers. Think about it for a moment. We're talking about a LOT of $$$ for what is basically an electric signal coming through a wire. Sure, I know they've got expenses, but it's not like they're investing in my cable infrastructure to improve my service. My cable has been in place for over 30 years and it's incredibly unreliable. I pay way too much for that kind of mediocre service and so do you. It's a basic flaw in Capitalism. Our economic system is the BEST on the planet, but it's not perfect. Price gouging isn't illegal and companies naturally want to reward all of their stock holders and return a profit. But, when we see CEO salaries in the millions and incredibly high pricing models straining middle class wallets, well, it makes me crazy.Elon Musk has inserted thousands of Starlink satellites in low earth orbits right above our heads for a reason. He's taking communications to a whole new level, a much better level. It won't be long before we'll be able to stream through that kind of satellite service. And given his cheap reusable rocket tech to carry literally hundreds of micro-satellites into orbit with each launch the cost of deployment will hopefully be small and reflected in our monthly bills. I will switch to that kind of new tech for my basic wifi when it becomes available. In the meantime, I'm cutting the cord with my cable provider and hopefully never looking back, but never say never, right?
