Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Sonos S1 Controller at none against Musique's 2. Sonos S1 Controller also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 18.0). Musique's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 months). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
