Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Silent Hour at 5.0 against MyEPB's 3.5. Silent Hour also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months) and device support (3 vs 1). MyEPB's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ratings volume (22 vs 1). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
