My favourite has always been greatnews but due to a few niggles and the major issue of no online sync pool for feeds it falls short and I have resorted to using feeddemon. Before I moved to feeddemon I was using googlereader with the bettergreader plugin which made it very usable but a lack of offline post backup (readair doesnt backup your feeds it only stores them temporarily), the annoying issue of posts only staying valid for 30 days and the constant UI and behavioural niggles made me give up and move to feeddemon which is nowhere near perfect but the best compromise overall.

I use and enjoy FeedDemon. It sync’s between multiple computers, the previews give you enough info to decide whether to read the entire article, it downloads for offline reading. You can download files and browse within the reader. Filtering and searching work well. I don’t know what more you could ask.

oh man, you had me until the $19.99 pricetag. I’ll take google reader for free anyday. Enhance it with some Friefox plugins and it really can’t be beat.
