I just have too high an opinion of people to expect them not to be able to learn how to use a Chromecast or home theater PC. I'm not gonna assume that some guy's wife is so tech illiterate that she can't figure out how to do anything more complex than four arrows, an ok button, and a back button. If someone wants their TV connected to the internet that's fine, but when you hinge all your media consumption entirely on one company, you must realize that that company now has control over your media consumption. It's fine to complain when they change the deal, but it's to be expected.
