It is potentiality £5, if you are a customer who usually consumes their media through play store purchases then you will be using the £20 anyway, so for just another £5 over and above your usual price for media consumed you are getting this product too.
The key word is 'potentially'.

No buffering here unless I cast the whole screen and that was just a one off. Since purchasing I have stopped using my android tv box, put kodi etc on my nexus 7 and use that to cast to this, I find it easier as the pads in my hands dont need a keyboard and no buffering plus better picture. Also find bubble more stable than allcast if using showbox etc. .

Don't get confused here - the "Original" version, had HDMI output, but would allow video media and music to be streamed to your TV/AV. The same goes for "v2" of chromecast.
The Chromecast Audio, has a 3.5mm/toslink jack/port. Which is meant to be hooked up to audio gear, like speakers/amp.
Are these better than original chromecasts. More times than not I would get buffering issues when watching just a YouTube video

That sounds like more of an issue with your local wifi setup. I've used an original chromecast for casting all kinds of content without much issue. The newer versions support the AC protocol though, so if you've got a router that supports it the newer versions are better.

it's time to look at upgrading your wifi router an AC one.
I have 2 of this cromcast's and both work fine. router is in the living room with one of the Cr2 and one Cr2 is in my bedroom one floor above. streaming full HD movies from my PC without a hiccup.

PLEX - by far the best chrome cast app...
I could only watch mp4 without buffering issues until I installed plex server on my pc. (also have the android plex app)
Now I have my full media libaray at touch of a button... and I couldn't be happier! and it looks awesome too!

I guess it depends on your router. Do you have 5Ghz WiFi?
what if you already have claimed 20 from your Google chrome cast and then you buy the audio one ??

I've got a feeling the Audio doesn't come with the credit..

Hmm can somebody confirm chromecast audio is entitled to the £20 my understanding of the terms is that it is excluded :
