Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: BB5 Live at none against Scoreboard's 8. BB5 Live also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 weeks). Scoreboard's advantage is device support (5 vs 3). On price and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
