Mac OSX RSS reader: your choice ?

Mac OSX RSS reader: your choice ?

Ok, I’m a little bit upset for this.

I was a faithful user of NewsFire (paying user, after having tried the open source Vienna, but not satisfied about that). Then I downloaded the famous NetNewsWire. This one was definitely faster than NewsFire, so I decided to try it out for one month.

After this period, I decided to buy it ($29). Now, I read about a new comer in this field, NewsLife. I’m trying it out right now and, even if not comparable with NetNewsWire in terms of features, it costs only $12 and it is faster enough and usable to be a good candidate for being my preferred RSS reader.

Ok, so am I saying that I’m going to be a paying user of three RSS readers ?!?

I’ll give this last one a try, then I’ll be really in the position not to be able to take a decision.

What about your thoughts?

  • I use Google reader Luca
    Its free, it took me a wile to get used to it but it works better than any paid reader I have used.
    Works perfect on Firefox on Apple

    Pat, for me Google Reader is fine for my mobile phone. I don't like that it doesn't update feeds in real time. There are usually new articles I miss.
  • I'm with Pat Luca.

    The google reader actually does update new items as I'm sitting there reading the headlines. The new feed flashes to let you know....although I'm not but not sure how often the polling takes place to be fair.

    For a user with multiple machines for home and work, plus needing mobile access for boring train journeys, I am a fan!
