Amazon and Roku Are Becoming a Duopoly in Connected TV

Amazon and Roku account for nearly 70% of installed streaming devices in the United States, according to Parks Associates. Roku still owns a healthy lead over Amazon in terms of installment base and users in the U.S., one eMarketer says will persist.

As their combined growth continues to outpace that of the rest of the industry, the two are creating a duopoly in streaming similar to the duopoly that Alphabet's (NASDAQ:GOOG) (NASDAQ:GOOGL) Google and Facebook (NASDAQ:FB) have in digital advertising. Even in that industry, though, the two leaders combine for just about 60% of the market. Amazon and Roku's combined dominance has the potential to be much stronger.

A duopoly has big implications for both media companies and advertisers as more money flows into streaming.
