In another development, Google has released a short but informative video demonstrating precisely Chromecast Audio Capabilities. The succinct clip explains how to cast songs from a phone or a tablet directly to one's speaker and is only a little over a minute long. However, the video may be skipped if the user is not inclined to watch some professional actors demonstrating the procedure in 1080p, reports Android Headlines. The video also demos streaming the user's own songs to a speaker without any further pairing required for the WiFi network connected Chromecast Audio.

Through acquiring Bebop in last year, Google has hired enterprise software veteran Diane Greene. Since that acquisition, Google is trying to make its technology a better choice. Through Bebop, Google has quietly launched a content delivery network and its competitor to public cloud market leader Amazon Web Services' (AWS) Lambda event-driven computing service. Google has also disclosed last week migrating Spotify's data infrastructure from AWS to the Google Cloud Platform. With all these recent moves, Google is probably attempting to represent itself as a consumer focused company.
