I’ve had it with NetNewsWire. As of now, it’s gone from my systems. Way back when, I paid $35 for it, and I was happy to have the syncing, a killer feature no other feed reader had. It went free soon after, leaving a bad taste in my mouth. Then they killed .Mac syncing, which I used, and I was forced to sync with their own service.
Now they’re killing the NewsGator service entirely, and forcing users to use Google Reader. Worse, the next version of NetNewsWire has ads in it. I hate ads, and it galls me that the software I paid good money for is now throwing crap in my face.
I don’t know what I’m going to use now, but it’s sure as hell not going to be NetNewsWire.
