Nobody's using these boxes for anything besides pirated IPTV. The market for Android boxes has existed for a decade.
There is not going to be much crossover between people buying hardware like this (to view pirated cable), and the people Google markets Chromecast/Chromeboxes too, because all those do is show paid/ad-funded 'legit' content.
