15% Globally Own a Streaming Media Appliance or Device

Globally, about 15 percent of respondents to a survey report they own a streaming video device such as a Chromecast stick or a dedicated streaming media device such as a Roku that enables streamed content to be viewed directly on a TV.

About 25 percent of U.S. respondents reported owning such a device.

For any new trend to develop, the underlying ecosystem (Internet access, content rights, access devices, affordable service plans, the right value proposition) must be in place. Internet-connected TVs, dedicated devices and sticks are part of the required infrastructure.
