Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Медиазона at Free against iGuides.ru's $1.99. Медиазона also leads on ads (none vs shown). iGuides.ru's advantage is update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 7 months) and chart position (#16 vs unranked). On in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
