Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SPIDER AUDIO at none against Delta's 3. SPIDER AUDIO also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and iOS requirement (10.3 vs 17.4). Delta's advantage is ratings volume (28K vs 1) and chart position (#69 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
