Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Emotional Life at Free against CMSPlayer's $2.99. Emotional Life also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 17.0). CMSPlayer's advantage is ratings volume (160 vs 3). On review sentiment, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
