Amazon's Fire TV set-top box outsold Apple TV in the last year, according to figures from Parks Associates.
In the US, Roku, Google, Amazon and Apple account for a whopping 86 per cent of the entire streaming market.
Roku is top, with a 34 per cent market share, while Google's Chromecast notched up 24 per cent.
Apple was third, but has been overtaken by the Amazon Fire TV set-top box.
However, it's hardly a fair comparison. Apple TV hasn't been refreshed since 2013, which is an age in terms of technology.
Apple is also rumoured to launch a new model next month. It's been whispered about for some time, which will have put people off buying the existing model.
