A recent report from Parks Associates, titled the Tech Ecosystem Dashboard, indicates that Roku is the most frequently used brand of streaming media players (SMP), with Amazon following closely behind. The report is based on a survey of 8,000 internet households, revealing that 43% of SMP owners use Roku most often, while 35% primarily use Amazon-branded SMPs for watching video content. Research Analyst Sarah Lee from Parks Associates noted that Roku and Amazon continue to dominate the SMP market, whereas competitors like Apple and Google have maintained their market shares without significant growth.
According to Sarah Lee, both smart TVs and streaming media players have become more affordable, providing consumers with cost-effective options and a consistent user experience within their respective ecosystems.
