With the announcement of the Chromecast, many including myself are wondering if this means Google will soon pull the plug on Google TV. Though Google has come out and said they wont do such a thing (yet), some are still skeptical. Now I'm not even sure if I'll make any sense, but feel free to add your own thoughts and opinions. Anyway, now that Android 4.3 has been announced with the addition of Google's DRM APIs, does the future of Google TV look a bit brighter? I'd like to think or even hope that with these DRM APIs available, more content partners might (finally) be open to the idea of providing content for Google TV. Another thing is the Cast capabilities implemented in Google TV but something else to consider is that Google just released the Google Play Games app with leader boards and achievements, and this comes at a time when the media reported that Google is working on a gaming console. Throw all of that into a Google TV device made by Google (or with a partner), and Mountain View might have a beast of a gaming/media device for the living room. Chime in guys (and gals).
