Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Streamie at 67% against TRENDnet IPView's 12%. Streamie also leads on rating (4.4 vs 2.1) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). TRENDnet IPView's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 13.4). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
