The most frequent use cases for us in order of use-fullness:
1. Spotify
2. TV control (with Harmony) - great for the kids so they don't break the remotes
3. Home monitoring when we are away (drop in on the echo spot).
But for me home security seems to be an unexplored opportunity for Amazon (and Google). Those microphones are very sensitive - and if paired with motion sense on other devices (a Nest or something) start to give you powerful intrusion detection tools and alerting. How hard would it be for them to recognise the sound of breaking glass or the presence of someone in the room at a time they shouldn't be there?
Obviously solving the pet issue is a challenge, but I think it's an interesting use case to explore.
