Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: APTV at 4.6 against 中国电视(iPad版)'s 2.7. APTV also leads on ratings volume (729 vs 3) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). 中国电视(iPad版)'s advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and iOS requirement (6.1 vs 15.0). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
