Magnavox pushed large furniture sets strongly, making more profit per set, but perhaps reducing their market share. They also had a reputation for eating flyback transformers, which could be a reason why many were eventually trashed. Plus of course there is the simple statistic of brand preference, with RCA and later Zenith in combination with RCA having the vast majority of sales. During their heyday, Zenith and RCA each held about 25% of the (US) market.
