Streaming video device pioneer Roku continues to lead the market, but rivals Amazon.com (AMZN), Apple (AAPL) and Alphabet (GOOGL)-owned Google are close behind.

Roku accounted for 30% of streaming media players purchased in 2015, down from 34% in 2014, research firm Parks Associates reported Tuesday. The Los Gatos, Calif.-based company makes set-top boxes and streaming media sticks that plug into TVs. Increasingly Roku is getting its software installed in smart TVs, eliminating the need for separate hardware to access Internet video services like Netflix (NFLX), Hulu and Amazon Prime Video.
