Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: iTunes Store at none against Funny Ringtones +'s shown. iTunes Store also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.4) and ratings volume (2.1M vs 1.7K). Funny Ringtones +'s advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs paid). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
