Google may have had to kill off the Chromecast line, but during my Google TV Streamer review, I found it easy to see why it did.

Google will aggregate live sports streams through the “Live” tab of its Android TV-powered devices with the Google TV interface. The update, rolling out over the next few weeks, will allow users to find and watch live sports from professional and college spots franchises as they air on channels carried through supported apps,

Next week, you can buy the Google TV Streamer for $100 to satisfy your streaming and smart TV needs. It's the official successor to Chromecast, and this set-top box device feels much more like an Apple TV or Roku than the Google dongles of old.

As part of its Google TV Streamer launch today, Google is bringing key feature from that device to Google TVs from Hisense, TCL and others.

Google has announced a massive Google TV update that brings three new Google TV Streamer features to all devices.

Finally, a set-top box from Google that isn't just a dongle hanging off the back of the TV. I love the Chromecast with Google TV streaming dongle. I have several throughout my home, including a budget Chromecast HD in the family room where my kid binge-watches Bluey.
