Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Please vote up this review, because I have read every single one of the 1 star reviews and NONE of them are valid reviews. Vote this to the top so it will drown out all the non-review bad bs! ---- I have a Chromecast installed on my TV right now. Here is my review: The day before I bought ChromeCast, *I* (a 16 yr software engineer) had spent FOUR HOURS troubleshooting our own YouTube streaming capabilities via XBox 360+PC (via Playon and TVersity) and via the Roku. I finally got it to work, but then I contrasted that to how I unpacked, plugged in and did a little welcome steps and was up and running in literally less than 5 minutes on the Chromecast, with superior quality to boot. *** The best news is that my 72 yr-old mother plugged in a Chromecast herself, launched it, set it up, and was using it *WITHOUT ASSISTANCE OR TRAINING* in under 5 minutes, and the same w/ my 7 year-old. *** Do you know how gratifying the experience was to both of them?! My 7 yrold couldn't stop laughing and my mom said it was the best technical experience she's ever had. She didn't even need a manual. It's simply a next-level disruptive experience. I have never been able to use iTV as it's Mac-ecosystem only (and we have no apple products in this house), but I want to now, just so I can know how the usability stacks up. ChromeCast is simply the easiest to use video streaming service I have personally used and using a tablet or laptop as the controller is *far* faster (and easier!) than navigating complex menus and touch-typing via a remote (roku) or XBox 360 controller. The kids just had an angry birds competition on the TV for the first time ever using their Galaxy tablets as the controllers. So now Chromecast is competing directly with our XBox 360, at least for web games. The Chromecast is *so* disruptive that my parents would have bought a cheap tablet if they didn't already have laptops and, well, smartphones, just to control it. They didn't want to mess with netflix since it couldnt be streamed on their TV. Now, my dad was like, "I wonder if I can cancel DirectTV now?" rut ro Bad comment for someone who's just demoing a device for the first time.
