Amazon and Google haven’t exactly been getting along like they used to. The two tech giants have gone separate ways, which began with Amazon’s removal of the Google Chromecast and other Google products that were on sale at Amazon.

The Google Chromecast has been unavailable at Amazon.com since the fall of 2015. Amazon removed the sale of the model with the underlying reason being to sell more of its own FireTV streaming dongles and set-top boxes. Things have only become worse in the last month or so, with YouTube access being refrained from certain Amazon smart devices. However, just last week, CNET noticed that the second-gen streaming dongles made way back to Amazon’s retail site.

When Amazon and Google aren’t happy with each other, neither are we as consumers. This bit of news comes across as good, since it appears that Amazon and Google have taken another step toward solving their problems. Apple TV, another one of Amazon’s competing devices, is also back up for sale at the retail giant’s marketplace.

The two giants still have a ways to go in forming the once-tight relationship the two companies had. This is a good sign that the two are trying to work things out, despite some recent separation. Let’s hope it continues.

The links to Google Chromecast and Google Chromecast Ultra on Amazon are below. As of the time this post was written, the two are ‘unavailable.’
