Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: BibliOdyssée at none against LibriVox Audiobooks's 3. BibliOdyssée also leads on ads (none vs shown). LibriVox Audiobooks's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 9 months) and chart position (#89 vs unranked). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
