This is pretty cool idea, and the "SoundKeys in Action" slideshow was definitely helpful.
It seems like the ubiquitous use-cases you're aiming for will rely heavily on the trademark as well. Have you successfully trademarked "SoundKey" for the many uses you've illustrated? I'm just curious, because it seems like a very obvious description of what it is (like trying to trademark "WebDesign" for a web design company). If so, then that's amazing and I think this has the potential to really take off.

On a lighter note, the pronunciation of "Waves crashing on the beach" is hilarious: http://soundkey.com/browse-sounds/58-waves
