Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: WATCH IT at 4.3 against PlayLoad's 2.5. WATCH IT also leads on ratings volume (21K vs 100) and review sentiment (17% vs 0%). PlayLoad's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs monthly). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. WATCH IT sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.49 per month and PlayLoad sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
