Amazon - Free Chromecast and Android TV Support for Amazon Prime Video

Just saw this on Ausdroid!

Amazon’s Prime Video app has added Chromecast support overnight on Android and iOS and allowed its Android TV app to roll out to more devices while Google’s brought an official YouTube app to Amazon’s Fire TV stick.

This brings a longstanding stalemate to a definitive middle (as if this will be the end of it), resolving some of the loudest user complaints on both sides of the aisle.

Google has also delivered on its end of the bargain, with YouTube now officially arriving on Fire TV. This should never have been too far out of Google’s way, since Amazon’s platforms run a version of Android anyway.

On Amazon’s Echo devices though, all is quiet. Amazon might now sell Chromecast devices (at least, in the USA – like almost everything else, searching for “Chromecast” on Amazon AU is a shitshow), but Home products are conspicuously absent.
