I would love to see this take off. I haven't bought a Chromecast because I don't use Chrome. I'd love a way to point my TV at arbitrary multimedia streams using any device I happen to have.


I will probably get one of these but thought I would point out that chromecast does allow you to do this assuming the app has integrated chromecast streaming. It is lame that its not a driver level integration in some lights but that would come with some issues around power. Doing it higher level allows for a nice handoff so that my phone isn't the middle man for hd data from netflix to my tv.


You don't have to use chrome.


Yeah, Youtube, Netflix and Plex apps on Android and iOS all support it. And that's just to name a few.
