Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Broadway.com at 4.7 against Broadway In Hollywood's 4.1. Broadway.com also leads on review sentiment (38% vs 0%) and ratings volume (2.1K vs 172). Broadway In Hollywood's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
