# D1 Baseball vs Diamond

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Diamond at 96% against D1 Baseball's 8%. Diamond also leads on rating (4.9 vs 1.7) and monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription). D1 Baseball's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. D1 Baseball sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $7.99 per year and Diamond sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $29.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
