That's good. Content segregation is already an issue with streaming services in itself, it shouldn't be one when it comes to the hardware.
Color me impressed. I expected to see peace in the middle east before this.
Holly shitballs, Amazon Prime on my Chromecast, finally!!!
I have a dumb kitchen TV that only has a Chromecast and it was the only place in my house where I couldn't watch Amazon Prime.
I Wonder if Amazon is still going to continue to ban some Google/nest products from their site.
Now we just need prime music on Google home devices and google play music / YouTube music on echo devices.
Good news, although the SmartYouTubeTV app provides full functionality already but it will be nice to have an “official” native app. Hopefully it will include full 4k HDR and ATMOS support. Now if only Amazon and Walmart would kiss and make up maybe we could get the full native VUDU app as well...
Huh, awesome. Looks like I'll finally be using Prime Video now. I'm a Prime user but I've only got Google devices so I was only using it for the free shipping.
About time. I don't use Prime Video often but when I do I have to run it through my Wii U of all things...
Hope this comes to mibox soon. I’ve been meaning to side load just to get prime video on my box.
finally! last two versions of primevideo for tv didn't work well on mi box s
Though I'd prefer a native androidTV app but I'm positive that Amazon won't support every official androidTV even now so it's good to know that they are adding support for casting too. :D
I canceled my prime membership last month because of the price increase. Didn't see the need to pay $120 a year for free shipping. That's basically me paying for shipping in the first place.
IT'S ABOUT DAMN TIME.
I guess if Amazon and Google can come together in the name of consumer friendliness, peace in the middle East isn't unobtainable.
Including Nexus players and Xiaomi MiBox S?
Focusing on the real enemy...disney
All children have to grow up sometime
Sideloading solved this 'issue' long ago IME.
Not just Chromecast! Per the article from The Verge:
"In exchange, Amazon will be adding Chromecast integration to its own Prime Video mobile app, allowing users to more easily view their movies and shows on a TV screen if they own one of Google’s affordable Chromecast streaming dongles. Prime Video will also become universally available on Android TV; until now, it’s been limited to select devices running that operating system. "
