Apple TV Shows Faith

Parks Associates' data of 2015 HDTV streaming video player unit sales spurred AppleInsider to write: "Apple saw a big boost in market share thanks to the launch of the fourth-generation Apple TV with Siri remote. Of the four largest manufacturers (Apple, Roku, Amazon, and Google), Apple saw the greatest unit sales increase year over year, and its share of sales in 2015 was 50 percent higher than in 2014."

Parks Associates predicts 86 million streaming media players sold globally in 2019. Not incidentally, in November 2015 Christian Cinema launched an app on the popular Roku line, currently the number one streaming video player by market share.
