Apple TV drops to fourth place behind Amazon's Fire TV

A new Apple TV may be in the offing -- and just in time.

Last year's US sales of the company's streaming-media box slipped behind those for Amazon's rival devices for the first time, according to estimates Thursday from researcher Parks Associates. That put it in fourth place, also behind streaming-TV box maker Roku and online search giant Google.

The popularity of streaming-media boxes has grown as more people watch Internet-delivered entertainment on their TVs. But amid the boon in demand, Apple's box has sat on the sidelines in the company's lineup, going more than three years without a new model. The company is expected to unveil a new version of Apple TV next month as it reveals its new models of the iPhone.
