Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: buzzinTV at 100% against Meural's 24%. buzzinTV also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.3) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 5 weeks). Meural's advantage is ratings volume (3.7K vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
