Google first tested the potential of its streaming media technology with Chromecast, a $35 dongle that can be plugged into a television set to enable people to access digital video services such as YouTube or Netflix. Chromecast was introduced in 2013 and has become a huge success for the online search company. According to Parks Associates the device has emerged as the number two media-streaming device in the US, capturing 20 percent of sales to American homes with broadband access during the first three quarters of last year.
In yesterday’s trading Google shares fell 1.9 percent to $519.46, leaving the company with a market capitalisation of $358.23 billion. The current consensus estimate suggests that investors should buy equity in the company.
