If they make a set top box with all(or most) of the functionality of Android and the chromecast for 99$ or less, I will buy it no questions asked. I love my chromecast. I use it every single day. But I would love it more if I could browse the Internet and more easily play local content.
They need to release a box with Android TV that allows external hard drives and also works with all the already chromecast enabled apps. Basically a replacement for the chromecast that also has all the functionality of any other set-top box and Android. A combination of the Amazon box and the chromecast with full access to the play store.
