Amazon’s Fire TV Outsells Apple TV Knocking it into 4th Place Amongst Streaming Devices

A study performed by Parks Associates, a market research firm, showed Apple TV dropping from #3 to #4 in streaming device sales. This is due to the growing popularity of Amazon Fire TV and Fire TV Stick which took the #3 spot.

Apple TVAhead of Amazon and Apple are Roku and Google Chromecast taking the #1 and #2 spots respectively. These four giants make up an incredible 86 % of the streaming market.

Now, while these figures might seem black and white in terms of sales, they don’t exactly provide a clear picture in terms of popularity.

The study also tracked usage within the household where Apple TV is still #3. So while Fire TV is more popular as a new purchase, it still hasn’t become a more popular device to actually stream content with. Yet. If sales are an indicator of things to come, then Apple needs to step up its game before it loses the race.
