Aha. So an android B&O TV and chrome cast supported speakers (from the B&O Play department it seems). Interesting.
Thanks
Later this year,so not at CES for the B&O TV.

Well, that can't be worse than the current SmartTV platform ;-)
I wonder if the Audio Cast will be available through software update, or if it will come as a new MK version of the products?

The hardware platform upon which much of the NL devices are based should be more than capable, so I suspect it will just be a firmware update that is required to add the chrome cast functionality
I hope spotify (with googles cooperation) are able to add chromecast support to the desktop versions of spotify as I find it frustrating that I can send audio from spotify to a chromecast using the mobile app, but can't initiate this with the desktop app (although it does work fine if you initiate the casting from the mobile app, then switch to using the desktop version).

I hope it's the same as sonys with Netflix, Amazon and YouTube for 4k, so easy to use and plenty of content.

'De to netværkshøjtalere, som B&O PLAY har på markedet i dag, er allerede kompatible med Google Cast-teknologien.
Derfor får ejere af BeoPlay A6 og BeoPlay A9 (2. generation) adgang til Google Cast via en softwareopdatering i slutningen af første kvartal 2016.'

Means: the A9 (second gen) and the A6 are getting an update at the end of the first quarter 2016.

We are just talking software update I take it?

Yes - as the danish text said.
Would be nice if the Moment was updated to enable Google Cast as well.
