Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: RCS at none against Radio AM/FM's 2. RCS also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.5). Radio AM/FM's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 14 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
