Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Volumio at 4.6 against Pro's 1.9. Volumio also leads on ratings volume (131 vs 15). Pro's advantage is monetization model (free vs freemium) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
