Verdict
Tune.fm and Bop both sit at 5.0 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Bop's written reviews are positive against 45% of Tune.fm's. Bop also leads on ratings volume (10 vs 2). Tune.fm's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, rating, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
