Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: truTV at 4.5 against Atlantic Station Cinema's 1.0. truTV also leads on update cadence (every 3 months vs every 15 months) and ratings volume (14K vs 1). Atlantic Station Cinema's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
