Absolutely!
One of the best things I ever bought.
I cut cable a few years ago and Chromecast was a lifesaver.

A year ago I went back to cable just because I wanted to watch the Mayweather/Pacquiao fight. But I cut it again.

Whats the difference in running that vs hooking up my computer via HDMI?

Nothing, I guess.
Just that it's wireless.

Rather than having the cable running across your living room, you just plug the Chromecast into the HDMI port and tune to it whenever you want to stream to it. You just hit the Input button until you come to it.

But if you're fine with your HDMI cable...there's no need to buy it, honestly.:yeshrug:

i like using my phone as a remote, and i mostly it for the big screen tv. once you get one, you'll see it's just way more convenient to control than always having to go over to your keyboard and mouse. plus if you are watching something you can just transfer it back to your phone or another device like an ipad if you need to move.

also majority of media apps have support for chromecast and more each day, so if you want to show something to your family or a friend, instead of handing them your phone to watch you can just throw it up on the big screen. $40 for something you use everyday is a damn good deal.

Need more info on this. Moving into a new house soon and I plan on cutting cable as well. I need info so I can get the hookup on everything right.
