Amazon vs Google....

[apalisoc_9]

Who you got winning this feud :lol

Round 1: Amazon stops selling Google productd in Amazon becsuse it competes against Amazon products

Round 2 : Google disables yotube and google searches for Amazon Echo

Round 3: Amazon finds a quick loophole

Round 4: Google comes up with a more defined disable. Now Amazon products cant use google.


I should mention that google and Samsung are also currently in a feud. Samsung just stab google in the back by using windows apps etc.

Some rumors suggest that Samsung is trying to ease their way out of andoid if windows can develop a reliable software for phones.


Same reason for the feud..Google and Samsung are both now huge competitiors.

[LaMarcus Bryant]

Meh. They'll all merge into one company regardless.

[leemajors]

Windows Phone is dead, son. They killed support for it.

[The Gemini Method]

Captialism. Kill your competition. Make that SKRILLA.

It's bullshit because we watch so much shit on YouTube with the Fire Stick..

Ain't trying to buy a Roku or Chromecast to see Ryan ToysReview on the TV :cry :cry

I'm interested in the Fire Stick. What makes it different than say Roku?

Chromecast is a gimmick that pretty much died out as far as I'm concerned.

it's perfect for watching sports off reddit, tbh. my roomate has one.

[sickdsm]

Roku u can't add apps like fire stick. All Amazon's products are based on Android.

Amazon better figure something out. They haven't sold Chromecast since 2015. Sounds like they're being the bitch. Google home will overtake Amazon Echo.

Crazy, I feel like the opposite. Had a Chromecast since day one (I was able to get two before they sold out). I've had three in my house for years. Use them everyday.

I Owen a fire stick, but I only use it for Jack box party games. The interface is just shittier than using Chromecast. It's slower, etc

Roku does just fine unless you want freedom .. Roku uses a propreitary OS so you cannot install Android apps like Kodi..

I have both.. Roku sucks IMO

You're wrong pal. The device itself notifies you that 12/31 is the last day it will work

[sickdsm]

Amazon is such a pos company compared to Google. Google had been doing humanitarian projects such as free internet for impoverished countries, etc. Lots of free beta apps. What has Amazon done?

[koriwhat]

well that sucks... read a report the day this was announced, like 3 days ago or so, that it only affected the firetv box. oh well! sure there's a way around it just like terrariumTV and Kodi. big whoop.

They deliver me shit in 2 days or less and put out Bosch.

The way around it is screen mirroring from a phone to the Fire TV or Stick.. Downside to that is the speed of which that drains the phone battery.

Upside is that you can just plug your Beats into the phone if you can't afford wireless Beats. Which I can.

or you know, install chrome browser on the stick and goto youtube.com

It doesn't just pass the streaming URL to the fire device like airplay does?

So do most websites. eBay and googling always returns cheaper results.

[hater]

They are all handled by the CIA/Dep state tbqh

Government told them long ago you better hire our guys and put them in position of power. And they did. Bezos WashPost now is the mouthpiece of the CIA and Google is basically a Hillary Think Tank :lmao

Without even spending two seconds looking into this claim, I'm gonna go ahead and confirm now that a Google browser app being the workaround to them removing a Google app is not going to be an option..

No idea tbh, will have to wait for the 1st i guess

You can plug your Beats into the Roku remote directly, leave this thread now.

Chrome isn't Google's collateral to Prime though.. it's YouTube.. Your theory will be put to the test 1/1/18.
