Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: SPIDER AUDIO at none against Fileplay's shown. SPIDER AUDIO also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Fileplay's advantage is ratings volume (4.2K vs 1). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
