when is the chromecast app going to allow me to just select any video that i view on the internet and click the symbol to stream? I know their big worry is probably pirated movies, but that's not what i want. it's for porn.

Deployed military (any nation) or other people with slow or no internet connection would really like to stream movies locally[1] to several screens. They probably bought the movies too. Sure, chromecast can do this via tab sharing, but an app would be nice. Why the obsession for streaming over the internet?<p>[1] <a href="http://www.theonion.com/articles/pentagon-loses-hard-drive-with-all-the-movies-on-i,6822/" rel="nofollow">http://www.theonion.com/articles/pentagon-loses-hard-drive-w...</a>
If only they'd make it a DLNA Digital Media Renderer. You'd then have many choices for playing local content, instead of just Plex.<p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Living_Network_Alliance" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Living_Network_Alliance</a>
