    Just read about it, so is it like an open standard Google Cast/Airplay type thing?

      It was the open standard, then Google broke it and introduced Chromecast.

      And they’ve polluted the wording so that Chromecast means both the device, and the protocol, etc etc

      I look forward to seeing what they rename the streaming protocol to. Maybe it will still be called chromecast

        It was called Google Cast for a long time, after other devices adopted the protocol.
