The clearest difference is ads: Dance Arena Player at none against Five3Radio's shown. Dance Arena Player also leads on update cadence (every 8 days vs every 13 months). Five3Radio's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
