Carol Haynes:
Yes it is good but do you want to pay $20 a year just to use it?

jazper:
Thought I would point this out, straight from Nick Bradbury's mouth. Yes, its old but may help in deciding whether to buy FeedDemon or not....

And it appears you can still buy it as "standalone" from newsgator.

You can buy it as standalone... at the moment, but this, which I just received from a NewsGator customer services person, muddies the water regarding the future:

"As for the future of FeedDemon, v1.6 will soon be released and rolled
into the NewsGator subscriptions.  I believe it will continue to be sold
as a stand alone product, but cannot say that is definite as things
change very quickly around here. "

Following on from my last post on this thread, I had another reply from NewsGator:

'FeedDemon v1.5 will continue work as always even once the new version is
released.  It's a separate product and will remain that way.  The
difference is that the new v1.6 is designed to integrate and sync with
NewsGator.  You can still use 1.5 as long as you choose.'

I have played around today with a number of related products - Onfolio, Omea Reader, SharpReader, GreatNews, Folio First, and one or two others (I followed links from the Wikipedia entry on RSS) - and I don't think anything touches FeedDemon for its clarity and neatness.  I just love the design and layout of this program!

Nighted:
FeedDemon all the way! I love it.  :-*
