Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Chilean Newspapers at 73% against LUN.COM's 17%. Chilean Newspapers also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.2) and ratings volume (734 vs 5). LUN.COM's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
