Great product, great price-value!
Easy to use, regularly updated, localized, free. What else could we ask for?
You can select multiple styles, make your own smart folders, etc.
The only regret is that it would be nice to be able to select different views for each folder/feed.

Isn't in eye level with NetNewsWire - Version: 2.2.0.2209, 9/14/2007 06:51PM PST

Used Vienna now since about seven month and have to say that it still can't replace Netnewswire. It's slower, has a lot more bugs and can't correctly handle all me feeds. I liked the latest revision that also speeds a little bit up but 'the original' is still the better choice - even when Vienna is for free and NWW is costly.

Very nice - Version: 2.2.0.2207, 8/24/2007 06:55AM PST

I've used a few of the 5 star RSS readers from Version tracker. This one works the best for me. Easy to set up, easy to use, great preferences, nice GUI. I'd highly recommend this to anyone looking for an RSS reader.
