Plex Inc. has slashed 50% off all of its mobile apps for Android and iOS for a limited time, including Plex for Google TV. “This sale will last about as long as most relationships,” the company says, so you’ll need to get in quick to take advantage of the offer.
The Google TV has pretty much been dead-on-arrival ever since it first launched in 2010. Google’s not about to abandon their TV ambitions, but they’re finally giving up on Google TV. Next up? Android TV.
As one of the biggest media companies in the world, Google has been dying to break into TV and while its latest offerings have been tempting, a new report suggests Google is considering buying access to the most popular sport in America.
Since Google’s launch of Chromecast on July 27, Sundair Pichai insisted that Google TV would evolve alongside its TV platform and that neither device would substitute the other. Now it looks like Sony is in the process of developing what could be a new Google TV-based product or a Chromecast competitor.
Less than 48 hours after Chromecast was announced and just over two hours since we published a post on how Google’s senior vice president, Sundar Pichai, believes that Google TV will evolve alongside Chromecast, a rumor has emerged claiming that Google is designing yet another TV entertainment device.
It is reported that Google has been secretly working on a new set-top box (STB), and speculation indicates that the new device will be much like the Roku and Apple TV, its been documented that Google’s new unit will run Android 4.3 Jelly Bean and will feature a ton of goodies which no other STB’s on the market offer at this time.
