This Futuresource media streaming report provides an updated outlook for the global digital media streamer market.
Futuresource classifies a media streamer as a standalone device that has the primary function of streaming video content to a display from an IP source. These devices are available in both box and dongle form factors.
The report reviews key developments, including media streaming companies' market share, and brand and country-level market segmentation, providing five-year forecasts. With analysis for key regions and 22 countries and a focus on key vendor profiles and pay-TV operator initiatives, the report acts as a strategic framework for any enterprise operating within the streaming media devices market or its adjacent sectors.
The global media streaming market is dominated by the big four of Amazon, Google, Roku and Apple, with several smaller brands, including Nvidia and Xiaomi, vying for market share. Worldwide media streamer market volume declined by 3.7% in 2023, totalling 65.1 million units. Ongoing economic difficulties dented consumer demand for media streamers, while growing ownership of smart TVs has diminished need for the devices. In 2024, despite improving economic conditions, Futuresource forecasts volume to continue to decline, primarily as consumers transition to smart TVs for digital content access.
