# E! vs MetroNet DVR

The clearest difference is rating: E! at 4.5 against MetroNet DVR's 2.4. E! also leads on review sentiment (30% vs 0%) and ratings volume (9.8K vs 13). MetroNet DVR's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

E! holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 2.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: E! has 9.8K ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 30% of E!'s written reviews are positive against 0% of MetroNet DVR's.
