Amazon removed Apple’s streaming device, as well as Google’s Chromecast streaming adapter, from its store in late 2015 amid increased competition in the video space. The company struck an agreement with Apple earlier this summer, and brought its Amazon Video app to Apple TV two weeks ago.
Resolving the conflict between Amazon and Google hasn’t been quite as easy. The long-simmering spat between the two companies escalated this fall when Google blocked Amazon’s Echo Show device from accessing YouTube videos. That prompted a cat-and-mouse game of workarounds and further blockings, as well as a fair share of public shaming from both sides.
However, just last week, Amazon began to once again list Google’s Chromecast, albeit as “temporarily unavailable.” The company said at the time that it was having “productive discussions” about resolving its differences with Google.
