Great for hearing news

I like its lack of frills. It's extremely polished, with a minimal, but very useful interface. It has a huge list of sources, though I would like to be able to add sources manually so I could get more local news.

Really Basic (Which Is Really Good)

I like the iOS version so I got the OSX version. Simple, clean, nicely put together. I don’t use it as often as the iOS version but it’s there when I want it.

If you aren’t happy with the existing feeds then pay for the ability to add custom sources and don’t complain.
