Think he meant what is easier to get started with / getting results. If he wants to animate as a hobby he does not need a software he first has to learn a year or more just to get started with. ;)

Well, it's a fact that Iclone is easy and pretty intuative to work with and renders your animations incredibly fast. You can watch lots of tutorials made by reallusion staff and many others on youtube and get an answer to nearly anything related. So in my opinion it's a good choice for beginners.
Blender I would not consider if you want to do animation clips seriously cause you have much more possibilities in an animation only software.
But what is best for you no one can tell you since there is so much software for animations out there. Many folks swear on Houdini (for people who don't have much time it's no option really cause the learning effort and time seems to be far higher before you can even start), but it is said to be used a lot in industry.
Go and watch tutorials, download free trial versions and figure it out for yourself.

If your goal is to create simple animations or cartoons anime blender is the best choice. Also try DAZ Studio, I think it is better than iClone, more resources and a lot of free stuff.
Yes DAZ Studio is great for rendering pictures, but did you ever try to render an animation longer than a few minutes in Iray at a decent quality??? - That would need "ages" even on a machine with high end hardware.
Apart from that iclone has lots more features for animations as lipsync, proper particle effects and a lot more. And if wanted it works also with a big variety of motion capture hardware. But it's very easy to learn, has a fast renderer (e.g. in my case on an "older" Geforce Titan X card just about twice the animations time at a resolution of 1920x1080 -> "Full HD"). But they have also offers (and one every week) if the goal is to save money.
Well of course you need to put money in at first for suitable programs (people worked on them for years and still produce updates and fixes). In my opinion you can't await much for nothing / nearly nothing...
