Millenial Media, a leading mobile advertising platform, is out with another Mobile Mix report. It shows?Amazon?s tablets gaining share in the mobile content market at a fairly dizzying clip. The Mobile Mix report is based on billions of monthly ad impressions and it offers an interesting glimpse of emerging trends in mobile content consumption. Perhaps the biggest bombshell is that Amazon is now hogging 28% of ad impressions served to Android tablets; just marginally behind Samsung?s tablets that get a 35% share. No other Android vendor has achieved double digits. The cheapo Kindle tablet strategy has helped Amazon to already vault to the top tier of the U.S. tablet market when it comes to content consumption.

When it comes to mobile content consumption across all smartphone and tablet platforms, Apple and Samsung naturally reign with 37% and 27% shares, respectively. Blackberry (6.5%) manages to edge out HTC (4.8%). But despite lacking a smartphone, Amazon has managed to already climb to 2.2%, edging out onetime giants like Nokia and Sony.
This survey is yet another sign of Amazon?s emerging power in the U.S. mobile content market. Amazon is in the process of carving out a substantial position in the tablet content market and it has a solid shot at becoming the fourth- or third-largest platform for mobile content consumption, particularly if it ever chooses to launch a smartphone. This is a foundation for staging a serious challenge in the video-on-demand market.
