Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: WKBX at 100% against TDS TV+'s 8%. WKBX also leads on rating (4.2 vs 2.2) and ads (none vs shown). TDS TV+'s advantage is ratings volume (97 vs 5) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
