I'm looking forward to the Google Photos app finally getting Chromecast support.. sounded like they were going to roll that out in the coming weeks.

Was on holiday with my girlfriend and her family and the villa we stayed in had a bluetooth speaker and we spent the week streaming music too it. He was thoroughly impressed and said he was going to replace his old hifi at home with something like it.

Guess he doesn't now!

I would like to see a Chromecast audio for transmitting audio rather than/as well as just receiving it. I've got a wall-mounted TV (with a chromecast attached) and don't want to have a cable running to my sonos speakers, so I can cast a movie to the screen but can't cast the audio to the sonos speakers. Another cool application would be for a dj setup, being able to turn the mixer into a castable audio source, then not having to use cables to the speakers.

I would buy a Chromecast Audio, if only it was cheaper than the video alternative, and if HTC's music app could cast. Play Music is so poorly designed...
