While this isn’t really gaming related, we might as well cover the last piece of hardware Google announced today during their event, Chromecast Audio.

The whole thing works almost the same as normal Chromecast, except it is for music.
During Google’s event this morning, the company announces two new Chromecast devices. One is an improved version of the current Chromecast, complete with a new spherical design. The other is an audio version of Chromecast for speakers, which is admittedly pretty neat in itself.

So if you are looking for where to watch the Nexus event, you can do so here or pretty much every other tech website on the internet, or YouTube as well.
