It was discontinued in January 2019.
Only option for one is 2nd hand on eBay or locally in Ireland.

If you're looking to "smart up" your existing audio system you could use regular chromecast. I have connected an old chromecast to the "hdmi to aux" converter (a tenner from Aliexpress) and then run aux to aux cable from the converter to my 10 years old tube/solid state hybrid amp. Streaming Spotify no problem.
