The clearest difference is in-app purchases: The Beat Band at none against Magic Starㅤ's 10. The Beat Band also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 10 months vs every 31 months). Magic Starㅤ's advantage is chart position (#46 vs unranked) and device support (3 vs 1). On price there is nothing between them.
