There's a lot of competition out there to host your weekend binges and movie nights

Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and Disney+ are just a few staples of the streaming entertainment world. While most of these services require a monthly subscription to use, you’ll gain access to hundreds of movies and TV shows without paying for cable. Of course, you’ll also need a solid streaming device or connected screen like a Google TV to enjoy all the internet content.

More free Chromecasts with Google TVs are up for grabs for YouTube TV subscribers

Just in time to pay a little more each month for 4K

YouTube TV isn't nearly as affordable as it used to be, and its new 4K Plus plan adds another surcharge onto your plan. If you're looking to get a little more bang for your buck, Google is giving away free streaming dongles, including its newest Chromecast with Google TV device, to current subscribers.

Third-party access warning for TiVo Stream 4K dongles fixed

No word yet regarding de-linked hardware and services for those that acted on the notification

Android TV is an open ecosystem with a lot of moving pieces, and that means sometimes bugs show up in unexpected places. Recently, some TiVo customers received startling security warnings about a company called SEI Robotics being granted full access to their Google accounts. Worse, revoking that access (as the notification recommended customers to do) could fully wipe out your smart home setup, removing smart speakers, Nest devices, and other Assistant-compatible hardware and services from your account. Google has since resolved the security warnings, but it sounds like customers that had their smart home setups wiped clean will need to rebuild them.

TiVo first made a name for itself in the late 90's when the company introduced a revolutionary digital video recording device that automatically saved TV shows for viewing later. Since then, TiVo has steadily dipped its toes into various products and services, like live TV via TiVo Online, TiVo Cast for streaming videos, and more. This decade, TiVo is branching out with a Sling-connected content streaming device powered by Android TV.
