You mean twice the ram (1 gig more than the shield), 4 times the storage (32 gigs), and a better remote (chirping find my remote feature, programmable button, and less shitty volume buttons)?

Yep. Sure sounds worse considering it also supports all the same features of the chromecast 4k and AV1 decoding.

And ethernet port!

You can get an Ethernet adapter for the Chromecast

Yeah, exactly. You needed to buy an extra adapter before. Now you don't.

This TV Streamer costs significantly more than a CCwGTV combined with an adapter.
