Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Mainstreem at 100% against Tivi Network's 57%. Mainstreem also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.5) and in-app purchases (none vs 4). Tivi Network's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (11 vs 2). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
