Watch It Again's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months).

Both are free to download. Watch It Again sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month and Unexpected TV sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
