This is what I do with my Chromcasts: 1. Stream Netflix movies for myself and my child. My son can control Netflix easily with my Nexus 4 smart phone once I get the Chomcast connected. 2. Stream music from Google Play music. I pay $7.99 per month and can use my phone in my living room chromecast, my bedroom chromecast and my bluetooth enabled radios in the cars. Everywhere I go, my music can come with me. 3. I use it to cast Chrome tabs from my Macbook whenever I want to share pictures with families or show something interesting I've been working on to friends. 4. Whenever Netflix doesn't have a movie, I can sometimes find something on Google Play Movie. I also own a Roku mainly because I find Amazon's movie selection to be vastly superior to what Netflix has to offer. I can usually find anything I want to watch on Amazon vs Netflix and Google Play Movies. One feature I need/want from the Chromecast is the ability to view my phone's screen just like Miracast. I'm assuming they're still working on improving the reliability. In order to properly stream content to the Chromecast, I had to upgrade my router to something that supported HD video streaming.
