I used it for a bit, got annoyed at the instability and lack of basic
filtering, and deleted it. MacSOUP all the way for me.

I have to agree. I've tried all the other news readers, and not one has
a thread tree display to match MacSOUP. You can keep binaries and

I remember a ripple of interest here when it first came out and had a
