The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Sourcd at none against Vinny's 6. Sourcd also leads on ratings volume (18 vs 2). Vinny's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
