Amazon Fire TV Tops Roku with 30 Million Active Users

Earlier this week, Roku announced that they had surpassed 27 million active accounts. At CES today, Amazon shared that the video streaming platform now has “well over” 30 million active users. This is up from the 25 million active accounts that Amazon shared in October — more than 20% growth in 3 months.

The company has been aggressively pushing their Fire TV devices this past holiday season. They discounted the Fire TV Stick to just $25 (normally $40) and Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K to $35 (normally $50).

Amazon has also expanded their streaming line-up with an OTA DVR called Fire TV Recast and an Echo/Fire TV combo called Fire TV Cube.
