The Chromecast has become the perfect companion to our Roku Box in the home since cutting the cable. It was easy to setup, and some of the small things, like having background wallpaper of some family photos or artwork adds a nice touch to the home.
More importantly, setup was easy and integration with Chrome on my Mac and Chrome on my Wife's Win8 computer was easy. The integration with my new Nexus 9 was seemless. I can Chromecast music from my tablet or even mirror the entire screen for certain games or apps that don't have the native Chromecast integration in place.
I can't recommend this enough!
I would recommend this to a friend!

can I watch regular digital television channels if i buy chromecast?

Time Warner Cable wants me to buy the box to rent so i be able to watch what is like ABC, NBC, FOX, PBS, ETC. Ever since the regular channels became digital, they want people to buy a digital television in order to keep watching, but not too long ago, now no channels will display and I was or am thinking of buying chromecast if it allows me to watch these channels again apart from netflix. If this device don't do what i am asking for, should i just buy the one call rabbit tv usb stick?
It depends on if the providers have it as an option or not.

For example. You can watch CBS from their website (or android app) and Chromecast that to the TV without a provider required.

The WatchESPN/DisneyXD/DisneyChannel apps require you to log in with a provider they support. Currently ESPN supports TWC, but Disney does not.

I'm not sure about Fox, but I suspect that they will be a similar case.

If you don't need the shows same day, you can get most shows through Hulu Plus or Netflix these days. The only ones you're really missing out on is live sports, but ESPN is helping cover that.

Naturally there are bootleg options out there, but the stream quality is so bad that it isn't worth it.
