I have no doubt that I have missed some thing off this list but would be interested to see what option Chromecast has that a Pi with LMS does not . If you feel that a Chromecast is a better otption then great that works for you but if there is somehting I am missing i want to know what it is as I might well think about switching to a Chromecast myself .
