Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: State 123 at 5.0 against MidcoTV's 1.7. State 123 also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 12 months). MidcoTV's advantage is ratings volume (74 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
