If I wanted a streaming box I'd buy or build a streaming box. If I wanted anyone with my remote control to be able to access my YouTube viewing history and all my streaming accounts I'd make it happen. What I want is a cheap dongle that my family and guests can use to quickly share media to the big screen!

Isn't that what a Chromecast is? The one I have, you just connect to the wifi and it shows up as a cast target. It doesn't do anything else.

They don't make those anymore, I think
