# 加国无忧 vs iTalkBB TV

The clearest difference is review sentiment: iTalkBB TV at 81% against 加国无忧's 19%. iTalkBB TV also leads on rating (4.5 vs 3.1) and ratings volume (718 vs 7). 加国无忧's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (monthly vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 加国无忧 sells 9 one-off in-app purchases and iTalkBB TV sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

iTalkBB TV holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iTalkBB TV has 718 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two.
