Have you actually looked at the protocol and the exchanges that go
between Chromecast devices and Google ?

For 'free' (if you have Amazon Prime) it's pretty awesome. It's not a
replacement for something like Spotify or Napster in terms of available
catalogue but it does have a lot of good stuff. You can also download

Their UI and use of metadata makes it so easy to surf through your music
collection finding music and relationships you'd never know existed.
It's also extremely intuitive and quite beautiful. But yes, it's harder
to describe than it is to see. This video gives a pretty effective
glimpse...
