Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: M3U Player at 3.7 against StreamVision's 2.7. M3U Player also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 weeks). StreamVision's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and ads (none vs shown). On price, ratings volume, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
