Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: IndieFlix at 4.2 against hmvod's 3.0. IndieFlix also leads on review sentiment (36% vs 0%) and ratings volume (51 vs 2). hmvod's advantage is update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
