I am taking a look at the Nvidia shield, which also uses the cast button. I have 3 Chromecasts that need to be replaced, but the cheapest Shield is $150!!

I guess each time Google kills something and I remove one more part of my life from their ecosystem they are doing me the real favor.

Tivo Stream is $40 and works a treat - it's Android TV based https://www.tivo.com/products/stream-4k

Being only $40 I’m highly suspect that I’m the product, not the customer.

They are hoping you will subscribe to their streaming service, but it works just fine without subscribing to theirs. It also aggregates multiple streaming services into a consolidated guide rather nicely.

Not as nice as Channels DVR (which also lets you record streams and will strip commercials), but one of the nicer streaming boxes for the money.
