While both are capable devices and worth their respective price tags, I personally liked the Roku a bit better—it offers a bit more out of the box for an extra $15. You get apps on the device, a remote, more content choices, and pretty much all the streaming capabilities you'd want in a tiny little package. Most importantly, however, you get choice. If you like remotes, you get a remote. If you like controlling with your smartphone, you can use that instead. The Chromecast costs a bit less, though, and if you like streaming stuff from your mobile device, it might be the ideal choice for you instead.

i dont quite get this. it seems my chromecast has 'lite' apps or something because pandora on my phone <> the pandora i see on chromecast.

likewise, netflix will lock up on my phone sometimes and i've actually turned my phone completely off but its still playing just fine on the chromecast.

chromecast has to be doing more than simply pulling everything from your phone.
