Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: FanWeb at 5.0 against DramaNow's 3.1. FanWeb also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 11) and ads (none vs shown). DramaNow's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (7 vs 1). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
