According to survey data from Parks Associates streaming media players have increased their market share in U.S. households, with 46% of internet households owning at least one. Roku and Amazon’s Fire TV stick continue to dominate with 43% of respondents reporting they use Roku the most often and 35% of streaming media player users saying they use Amazon-branded external devices the most.

However, penetration of smart TVs paces ahead of external streaming devices, counting a presence in 68% of U.S. internet households. And more households consider the smart TV as their primary device for consuming video (56%) than external streaming devices (34%), per Parks Associates.
