Web Video, Music And PicsThe compact dongle can push Web video, music and pics from the cloud to your television. But the really big deal is that you can control it all from a range of devices for a dirt-cheap price—a $35 price tag that could tip the scale for fence-sitters.

Here’s what you most need to know about the little streaming stick that looks poised to make big waves.




1. Chromecast really is tiny

• The stick is just three inches long, with a micro USB port on one end and a HDMI plug on the other. So it won’t take up precious space in an entertainment center. •Google's Chromecast has been one of the most popular

media streamers on the market for two years, thanks to its tiny design and $35 price tag.




2. It has a power cord

That micro USB port is for power; you’ll need to run a USB cable from the Chromecast to the included power adapter or a USB port on your TV. So the unit isn’t a fully self-contained gadget that will hide neatly and completely behind a TV. It’s worth noting for anyone who plans to carry it around to friends’ houses, meetings or other places where connected TVs aren’t available.




3.There’s no learning curve Google repeatedly emphasized that there’s nothing new to learn and no configuration to fuss with in Google Chromecast Com Setup It’s fully controllable from iPhones, Android phones and laptops—in other words, a variety of gadgets that lots of people already own. Those can manage playback, pause, skip and even volume without any real setup or need to learn new sets of controls.






4. Chromecast is largely platform agnostic

• You can control Chromecast from Android phones or tablets (version 2.3 or above), iOS devices (6.0 or higher), and computers with Chrome for Mac (Mac OS 10.7+) or Chrome for Windows (Windows 7+), as well as the Chrome book Pixel. Support for other Chrome books is in the works.

• That agnosticism extends beyond simple control of the Chromecast. You can also resume watching, say, a Netflix movie on your mobile—whatever it is —from the precise moment where you left off on the TV, and vice versa.





5. It’s cloud-only

Unlike Apple’s Air Play, Chromecast does not involve flinging saved files from a phone, tablet or laptop to the television. Just tap a button inside a compatible site or mobile app, like YouTube, and the device grabs the same clips, songs and pics from the cloud.




6. Compatible streaming sources are limited now, but sure to grow

The list of current and future offerings cover only a few major sites, including YouTube, Netflix, Google Music, Pandora and Google Play TV & Movies. In time, though, there are sure to be others, thanks to the Googlecast SDK







7. If your media plays in a Chrome browser, it will play via Chromecast (for the most part):

You don’t have to wait for specific apps to support it. The Chrome browser powers the device, and it’s capable of tossing practically anything from your laptop to Chromecast on your TV (though Silverlight and Quicktime videos need not apply, notes Wired). Hulu, Rdio, and HBO Go reportedly work this way; so do Flickr photos and browser-based online presentations.

8. If you’re hoping Chromecast will play nice with DRM-protected iTunes files, well, stop

• This is not likely At all. iTunes DRM (digital rights management) is fierce, and it has foiled countless other developers who’d like nothing better than to let their users enjoy iTunes videos.

• Things get even more complicated when you consider Chromecast’s cloud-only modus operandi, since shows you buy or rent from iTunes usually come via download. Although Apple does allow some streaming, it’s mostly aimed at other iOS or OS X devices




9. Consumers are already swarming in

• The Google Play store has sold out of Chromecast , with the earliest ship date showing August 7 Amazon briefly had it, but then also sold out. At this time, Best Buy online is the only Internet retailer I found that has inventory, and here too, it’s very likely to sell out quickly.

• Chromecst at $35, it’s likely that many customers aren’t just buying one—they’re probably picking up piles of them, as Google recommended, for use on every TV in their house.








10. The free Netflix promotion applies to everyone

Every product purchase comes with three months of Netflix for free. This is not some restricted offer for new customers only, but a valid promotion for both new and existing subscribers.
