The Great Market Comparison

Big names.
Bold comparisons.

McDonald’s, IKEA, H&M and a music site from Hannover. Someone finally had to do it.

Over 2.300 tracks. 15 Creator Tools. All of it free. Straight to the prices

More choice.

vs. IKEA

More atmosphere.

vs. H&M

Better backrooms.

But we would have been delighted with these reviews.

Over 2.300 tracks, a mixer and all of it free? We need to have a word with our menu development team.

Organise projects Task Board	Sort tasks and tick them off.	Order. Eat.	Assemble. Disassemble. Assemble properly.	Try on. Doubt. Other size.
Convert formats Video & Audio Converter	Turns one file format into another.	Turns potatoes into fries.	Turns planks into weekend plans.	Turns “just looking” into two bags.
Read your script Browser Teleprompter	Helps you not to forget your lines.	“I’ll have the … erm …”	“We really only need …”	“But I already have this in …”
Write Markdown Editor	Write, preview, export as PDF or HTML.	A napkin.	A pencil.	The care label. Very compact literature.
Chapter marks Timestamp Generator	Chapter marks for your videos.	“How long have we been waiting?”	“How long have we been in here?”	“You said five minutes earlier.”
Detect colour Color Profile Tagger	Detects and labels the colour profiles of your clips.	Ketchup red.	Swedish blue.	Beige. Sand. Ecru. Completely different, obviously.
Design graphics Image & Design Studio	Design thumbnails, banners and graphics.	Ketchup art on the tray.	The frame is already there.	The design is unfortunately already printed on.
QR codes QR Code Generator	Creates your own QR code.	You scan.	You scan.	You scan.
Record your screen Autozoom Screen Recorder	Records your screen with automatic zoom.	Close-up of the last fry: done by hand.	Zoom on screw B17: done by hand.	Zoom on the price tag: involuntary.

Queue	None. The server always has time.	Till 3 is about to open.	At the warehouse. Always.	At the fitting rooms. Always.
Tipping	No tip field. 0 € times 15 % is 0 €.	Round it up?	The cushion was unplanned.	The bag costs extra.
What you own afterwards	A licence that never expires.	A wrapper.	An almost straight shelf.	A T-shirt.
Returns	Not needed. You give nothing back.	Not really a thing.	With the receipt and some patience.	30 days, tag still on.
Customer service	One person. He also writes the music.	A terminal.	A ticket number.	A queue outside the fitting room.
Ice cream machine	Running. Every track plays.	Broken.	Soft serve for a euro. Works.	Doesn’t have one.
Toilet	We don’t have one. Honestly lost.	Yes.	Yes, and you will need it.	Yes, second floor, at the back.
Can satisfy your hunger	No. I got side-tracked.	Yes.	Surprisingly, also yes.	Also difficult.
