Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Ez Rez at 5.0 against Spot's 4.1. Ez Rez also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 2) and review sentiment (100% vs 75%). Spot's advantage is update cadence (every 6 days vs every 3 weeks) and chart position (#69 vs unranked). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
