Selection for Fire TV is growing incredibly quickly-it has the largest and fastest growing selection of any streaming media player, said Steve Rabuchin, Vice President Amazon Appstore. We're energized by how many of our customers are discovering new content, and by how excited developers are with such a new platform.
Fire TV integrated universal search from the very beginning, and customers have loved being able to easily search across multiple services, including HBO GO, Showtime, Hulu, STARZ PLAY, ENCORE PLAY, and Vevo. Plus, Amazon will be adding over 10 services to universal search by the end of the year, including A&E, HISTORY, Lifetime, and PBS.

Customers love Amazon Video on Fire TV, streaming more hours of movies & TV shows including our award-winning Amazon Original Series like Transparent and Tumble Leaf per month on Fire TV than on any other living room device.
