Are you have better audio gadgets?

Yes, the Chromecast Audio is better than any Bluetooth adapter ever invented. Its release basically destroyed this product category.

No Bluetooth though, right? My buddy has a little $30 Bluetooth adapter that has a transmitter/receiver button and can act as a plug to make headphones wireless, which is pretty neat. Sort of like a Roku 3 remote, but for anything with Bluetooth, rather than having to have a wireless network available.

That is pretty neat. A Chromecast Audio can't do that.

It's one like this:

Very clever design. Battery lasts like five hours despite being tiny. It works well for him (streaming music from his computer's Bluetooth connection to his headphones without getting wrapped up in the wire), although the reviews say it lags if you're receiving BT audio from your TV (lip sync issue). I have one coming in to use with my Google Cardboard device for VR (I have the Viewmaster model), since there's no port to run an audio cable out for sound & I'd rather use my Etymotics than some cheap BT headset haha.

Problem with the Chromecast Audio is that it doesnt work that well with Apple stuff. At least the support was very limited when it was released. I bought a little box a couple years ago that does airplay and dnla, so that whatever device a guest had they could use the portable speaker.

Geeze, wake up on the wrong side of the couch this morning did you? I have to assume you didn't even check the OP's other posts... They might not be "typical" AT material (for better and/or for worse?), but nothing about their posting history suggests "spammer"...

Maybe coincidence but there was another account pushing that brand the day before. That account and its posts have been exorcised.
