Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: 金庸听书HD at none against 中华经典古籍合集's shown. 金庸听书HD also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). 中华经典古籍合集's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (51 vs 1). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
