I like this reader, bought it today. It works very well. However, some parts of the UI aren't that nice.
The "+" button, "Back" button, "trash" button etc shouldn't be in the style they're in as they don't fit the UI at all. Maybe consider making their fill transparent with a light outline. Just my two cents.

This app has had no update in over a year now. It freezes, crashes and is a waste of money. I wish I could get a refund for this. My recommendation is skip this developer and any of his applications.

This is a really nice RSS reader.
When I monitored hundreds of feeds NetNewsWire was the best. Now that I've trimmed down to a few dozen I want something lighter.
What it does best is give me a broad overview of my feeds. This saves time. The inline summaries are well-designed and compact (compare with Vienna where each article in unified mode is huge). I can see article lists without using disclosure triangles (ahem, endo) and articles are grouped by feed, unlike those readers that try to look like e-mail programs.
Its closest competitor would be NewsFire. If you like NewsFire take a look at NewsLife and see what you think.
I've had two problems: Podcast enclosures won't download and it won't refresh feeds when I wake my computer. Given this is a 1.0 product that's not too bad.
