If squeezing the maximum amount of detail out of your hi-fi system is a priority, this may be a deciding factor. If you're an audio quality nerd there's one difference between the two streams, and it's a numbers thing - AirPlay/AirPlay 2 are stuck at CD quality (16/44) while Chromecast allows up to 24/96 streams.
In our time using both systems there have never been any noticeable problems that didn't involve internet or Wi-Fi connectivity. Tap the AirPlay or Chromecast icon and your media plays. In practice, using either system to stream content day-to-day is mostly invisible - your equipment simply appears in whichever app you use.
Apple's system is noticeably slicker, while Google's looks like a middle-school quiz, but both apps get the job of connecting your devices done. The systems use similarly named apps to set up new devices:Īnd Apple Home.
