Google TV is the strongest choice here for discovering films and shows in one place. Its personalized recommendations and watchlist help organize viewing across supported streaming services, while Google Assistant voice search and integration with Google’s ecosystem add convenience.
It is less suited to viewers who need extensive offline access or deep customization. Streaming depends on a reliable internet connection, and occasional crashes have been reported; its 3.9 Google Play rating is below iTunes’ 4.7.

iTunes is the clearest fit for people invested in Apple’s media ecosystem, particularly those who want to buy, organize, and play music and videos. Its extensive music library, personalized playlists, high-quality audio streaming, and offline listening give it a broader music focus than Google TV or BiliBili.
That focus comes with Apple ID requirements and a more limited free tier, while subscriptions can be costly. Some tracks may not be available in every region, and its 4.7 Google Play rating is the highest of these three apps.

BiliBili is the most specialized option for anime, pairing HD streaming with a diverse selection of video content. Frequent content updates and customizable playback settings make it a more anime-oriented choice than Google TV or iTunes.
Its narrower appeal may not suit people seeking a general-purpose media library, and some content is region-locked. Offline downloads are limited, premium content requires a subscription, and its 3.7 Google Play rating is the lowest of the three.
