Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: eMusic at none against Music Player ‣ Video Streaming's 1. eMusic also leads on review sentiment (35% vs 0%) and ratings volume (175 vs 24). Music Player ‣ Video Streaming's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.2) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Music Player ‣ Video Streaming holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2.
