I've used Unison for quite some time now and I'm still very impressed with it. I just hope they continue to improve on it. When it gains 1 more very standard, and included with other news readers features, it will become my news reader. Unison seemed to be pushed out to the music/binary downloaders, and was not thought out quite far enough for universal use. Those two features are uploading capabilities, and offline reading. Most news readers offer offline reading, and if they don't, you can still manage to download all full articles if you wanted by using manual means. Unison can't handle this very simple, common, basic function. Dare I even call it a feature? That would be like calling the tire on my car an optional accessory. At least in my opinion.

Other than that, great interface, good stability, and I hope they continue to improve in areas that really need it first before adding features other would find useless. Until then, I must do most of my discussion reading using Entourage. Wow, to think that Entourage's news reading capabilities can be better than a dedicated news reader just blows my mind.
