I only have room for 20 selections, so I had to leave a few off the list. Feel free to add the name of your favorite program here as a comment if you had to vote "Other."

I like Thunderbird, keeps my mail and news in one place.

I second this -- I like having it checked and organized with my e-mail. I fnid that I do both tasks at the same time, so I it is handy to have them in one place.

I regularly use Sage, but I think Lektora deserves a mention for the "other" category.

I voted other, I use Bloglines. The best thing is that it can remember which feeds you've read between multiple computers.

I roll my own as needed.

It is the only one of the options that is unobtrusive and stays out of the way. I really don't need another bloated app taking up gobs of desktop real estate and SlashDock, sitting only in the dock and nowhere else, fits the bill perfectly. Love it.

So far I have let Opera handle my feeds. Not satisfactory, but neither is any of the other readers I found. PulpFiction looks promising though.

Actually, this is quite an oversight :)

I haven't taken the time to properly evaluate RSS readers, but Sage was, well, unhelpful when I tried it. So I'm still doing it the old-fashioned way.

I Use my Slimdevices Squeeze box for my RSS feeds because i'm cooler than you and I know it! :)

but would rather wait until it is integrated into Safari when Tiger is released. I'm not really interested in running another app specifically for it.

bloglines.com does it for me. I love that I can read my feeds anywhere with a browser and am not constrained to one computer.

I use NetNewsWire Lite, but FireFox offers RSS headlines that show up as a folder in the bookmarks bar with a neat icon to indicate a dynamic bookmark. It's not really an RSS reader since you only see headlines unless you click on one, and then it opens in a browser page.

I've tried a few too, but since I'm in Firefox most of the day, regardless of which Mac (or PC) I'm using, I just use the "Live Bookmark" feed option. I scan for articles I want to read (such as on OS X Hints) and click... I'm there. Simple, without the baggage of yet another program to keep running all the time.

I use Kontent, which is an RSS headline widget for Konfabulator. It's nice, since you can set up multiple RSS feeds that appear in different tabs. It's another one of those RSS programs that displays just the headline, opening up the body of the news item in a browser when you click on it.

The version of Safari that comes with 10.4 has built in RSS support (and quite nice too). You can get the new version of Safari off of Apple's Developer site now, before 10.4 comes out.

There are other neat things that 10.4 will provide as well, such as the RSS Visualizer screen saver, as seen on Engadget:

Okay, back to being sick.

Though not strictly RSS readers, I use both OmniWeb's built in RSS aggregator and Watson's Meerkat plug-in.

PulpFiction is awesome. I think that if more people gave it a try, they find that it's much nicer than NNW, and the others.

While it can be a drag to only read brief synopsis' or headlines, longer text is difficult to read on my iPod Photo...
