Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: iPlayer at 100% against LineGet's 28%. iPlayer also leads on rating (5.0 vs 2.6) and update cadence (every 3 days vs fortnightly). LineGet's advantage is ratings volume (73 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
