Oh wow, chromecast for photos, it's so obvious you'd almost ask why that wasn't included in the first place

Family music access is cool. I'm gonna throw my dad on my account so he won't infect the upstairs PC trying to download a grateful dead album again.

Finally. It was dumb that Photos didn't launch with Chromecast support.

Yeah, i've been using the feature with samsung phones with my samsung tv for years, I was surprised when I couldn't do the same with google photos and chromecast.

Really should have launched with AC and 5ghz support. Took long enough, network has always ducked horrible on mine.

Raise your hand if you've ever opened the chromecast app to do something besides setup the drat chromecast device.

Well this now does actually give us a reason to do it. Having cross app search for Chromecast is pretty huge really.

I hope Plex implements the search function.

And increases their streaming bitrate limit for the new devices so I can watch stuff without it transcoding.

I'm falling asleep. Phones were completely leaked and not particularly exciting in the first place, the rest of this is all fine as small improvements but should've been covered in like 5 minutes. "Family account on Music, Chromecast is faster, there's this audio thing too." Done.

These changes sound very familiar, i.e. every major media tech company. Maybe they should all just have one event

I don't know if I've ever seen one of these events that this wouldn't apply to. Apple, Samsung, Google, they all drag it out way too much.
