An earlier digital media hub from Google that streamed music and videos from computers and mobile devices to stereos and home theaters. The round, two-pound unit's 25 watt amplifier could also power speakers directly. Touted as a "social streaming device," friends nearby with Android devices could mix their music into the playlists. Introduced in 2012, it was discontinued later that year. See
