bittorrent clinets?

should we really add bittorrent clients like on this page? I give a note in the introduction!

client adding

following clients need to be added: Comparison of web browsers:

again wrong order in the comparison mabdul 0=* 17:45, 25 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
following clients should be deleted:

  • Windows Mail (the vista version of outlook express) does not support rss feeds

Features to add to comparison

mabdul 0=* 17:45, 25 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Nested folders.

(The reason for raising this issue is that very few feed readers allow this, making it a genuine pain to organize feeds, short of splicing them using a web app. The only app I know of that will do this is Attensa (for Outlook and OS X), which are no longer supported in a free version. The same comment should be made on the OPML page, so I'll go repeat my observation there.) A.k.a. (talk) 23:08, 14 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Other Feed services

  • Feed43 (WatzNew)
  • NewsMonster
  • Syndirella

  • Feed syncers ought to be added in a separate table on this page

(The reason for adding this is the difficulty of syncing across browsers without losing the tags and folder structure built by the user in the original feed reader setup. I cannot believe that after a decade of RSS app usability, no apps out there make this easy. As far as I am concerned, this is a flaw in the RSS/Atom protocol, but I have yet to hear any intelligent discussion of it. A.k.a. (talk) 23:08, 14 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Downloadable aggregators only?

Is this article only supposed to cover aggregators that can be downloaded? To put it another way, does it specifically exclude web-based ones? I'm not familiar with some of the aggegators listed, but I'm wondering if sites like Bloglines and Google Reader have been left out for a specific reason, or just because no one got to them yet. If they are excluded, the introduction should state which kinds of aggregators are being listed. Ebow (talk) 14:23, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Why are some items red and some blue? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.5.219.236 (talk) 22:03, 2 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Whoo, what happened?

Why did a IP create last year the same table content (rss, atom, podcast) in the general table? that doesn't make any sense! I will revert this today! mabdul 09:43, 8 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Operating System Support

Given how mobile devices are becoming more omnipresent in today's society, I find it interesting that only one mobile device operating system is listed, Windows Mobile. Granted, my phone runs on Windows Mobile 6.0, but wouldn't people care about other mobile operating systems, such as Android, Symbian, the iPhone, etc.?

Rather than making separate columns for each of these, it might make more sense to rename the Windows Mobile column into Mobile Devices, and list the operating systems available for each agregattor seperately? --Fredrik Coulter (talk) 13:21, 6 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Opera Mail

According to the chart, Opera Mail supports Windows Mobile. I can't find any support for this on the Opera web site. Is it true? --Fredrik Coulter (talk) 13:31, 6 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

MMh, good question. I know that opera mail is inlcuded in the desktop version. The mobile version (Opera Mobile) and Opera mini do have both an integrated web feed reader. so it may be correct although the M2 isn't called so on the mobile systems... mabdul 12:34, 2 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Netvibes Reader

Why isn't Netvibes reader in here? I believe it's better than Google Reader... It should at least be listed...
