Roku fires back at Chromecast in latest app update, can now stream locally stored content from Android devices

Roku may have been dealt a crushing blow with the release of the insanely affordable Google Chromecast, but they're not down for the count. The tiny streaming player has come back with a 1-2 punch, hitting the Chromecast right in its dongle by addressing the Cast's biggest shortcoming — lack of support for locally stored streaming. In an update hitting the official Roku app today on Google Play, Android users will now be able to stream content stored on their Android devices — pictures, movies, and music — straight to their Rokus players.
