Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Memory Melon! at 5.0 against IGN Playlist's 4.0. Memory Melon! also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 60%) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 4 weeks). IGN Playlist's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and ratings volume (116 vs 10). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
