  • Thomson has launched a copy of the discontinued Chromecast with Google TV.
  • The Google TV dongle comes with an updated remote that features a dedicated “Live TV” button.

Earlier this year, Google discontinued the Chromecast with Google TV and replaced it with the new Google TV Streamer. The old Chromecast had a compact, dongle-style design that plugged directly into a TV’s HDMI port. In contrast, the new Google TV Streamer features a more traditional set-top box design, with a separate unit that connects to your TV via an HDMI cable. The Chromecast was also much more affordable, with the 4K model costing about half as much as the new streamer. The good news is that a Chromecast alternative has just hit the market, albeit it doesn’t come from Google.
