Coincidentally, Parks Associates has also released set-top box data today, finding that Amazon, Apple, Google, and Roku together make up 86 percent of all set-top boxes sold in the U.S. in 2014. Roku is the king, selling 34 percent of all boxes. Google is next with 23 percent, Amazon is third, and Apple is fourth.

How often do people use those devices once they get them home? Parks says that Roku boxes account for 37 percent of all usage, followed by Google Chromecast (19 percent), Apple TV (17 percent), and Amazon Fire devices (14 percent).
