NextMarket Insights does, however, note that challenges lie ahead for the segment. Factors that could hinder growth in the coming years include platform fragmentation, an immature advertising ecosystem and resistance by incumbents. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana\">Within a fragmented market, the potential for disruption is significant,  according to NextMarket Insights. A potential catalyst, though, would be  significant investment in a connected TV apps and services platform by  either Apple or Amazon. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana\">&ldquo;Market growth will be driven by a number of monetization models,&rdquo; said Michael Wolf, chief analyst for NextMarket Insights. &ldquo;The growth of app-delivered subscriptions, virtual pay-TV bundles, advertising, premium apps, in-app purchases, transactional content and digital to physical commerce will result in a substantial new market opportunity for both new entrants and nimble incumbents.&rdquo;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana\">&ldquo;The biggest hurdle going forward for the TV app economy is the number of connected TV software frameworks,&rdquo; added Wolf. &ldquo;There are no less than ten connected TV software platforms in use by major OEMS today, with no clear winner in sight.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana\">&ldquo;Both [Apple and Amazon] bring substantial strengths in digital distribution, content packaging and commerce that could alter the landscape. We think one or both of these players will make a push into this market in the coming 12 to 18 months.&rdquo;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SEATTLE: The market for connected TV&nbsp;apps and services is expected to be booming in the next five years, forecast to reach $14 billion in the U.S. by 2017, according to NextMarket Insights.
