Research and Markets: The Evolving Market For Streaming Media Devices (2Q 2014)

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/sbw8nx/the_evolving) has announced the addition of the "The Evolving Market For Streaming Media Devices (2Q 2014)" report to their offering.

This report tracks the rapidly evolving market for alternative set-top box devices, such as Apple (News - Alert) TV and Roku, which threaten set-top boxes provisioned by pay-TV providers.

As devices adopt pay-TV apps (e.g., Roku features a Time Warner (News - Alert) Cable app), the pay-TV industry must consider that the video user experience and interface may be controlled by a third party. This report includes a five-year unit forecast as well as evolutionary points.

• Consumer adoption and usage of streaming media devices and connected TVs
• Impact of "streaming sticks" like the Google (News - Alert) Chromecast
• Consumer use cases for connected CE devices
