This is excellent news for Chromecast owners. We've been hearing about pending support for Chromecast since it was first released but basically nothing had come of it. Give me a few more digital sources (I'm looking at you Amazon Prime) and I'll be one step closer to completely dumping cable tv.

Anyone want to bet on the over/under for when HBO Go/Showtime Go will appear? I imagine it will be a bit of a shot across the bow to the traditional cable providers.

If you're looking to cut cable now, I'd highly recommend Roku. It has Hulu+, Netflix, Amazon Prime, etc. (Aereo is also awesome for showing broadcast TV, although that only works in a few markets). The only thing Roku doesn't do well is Youtube, which is why I also got the Chromecast. As an aside, is anyone else noticing synching issues on Chromecast? When I play a Youtube tab the sound and picture aren't quite synched up, which is really frustrating.

I too am awaiting Amazon Prime to support Chromecast. Hopefully we'll see it sooner thanks to Hulu+ throwing it's hat into the ring.

I expect Amazon Prime to take longer due to it's existing Silverlight usage.

It's so great that this little dongle can almost replace and in some cases exceed (youtube, et al.) my Roku.

Amazon Prime doesn't even support (non-Kindle Fire) Android yet.
