Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: CATV at 5.0 against XTREAM IPTV's 4.4. CATV also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). XTREAM IPTV's advantage is ratings volume (1K vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price and update cadence there is nothing between them.
