Vienna is good. But NewsWire is better for me with an easier way to create folders and mark unread articles as read. Just depends on your needs.

Good choice - srparker

I have to disagree with the Vienna --> NNW comment. I had to go the other way, since NNW was actually losing data in feeds. If you add a couple feeds to a folder, set persistence for those feeds to a LONG time, and read at the folder level, as soon as you leave the folder, all the read feeds are destroyed, leaving empty feeds.

This was reported to NewsGator almost a year ago and, while they've repeatedly said it's a high priority bug, nothing ever got fixed.

Vienna can mark articles read, and works almost exactly the same way. Except for the fact that it doesn't delete data.... :)

Just my $0.02
