Ensemble by Pyxis. Web site in Japanese but has English translation available. Supports RSS and Atom.
Feed by Keith Anderson. "There are a lot of RSS readers for Mac OS X out there, and Apple even added RSS capabilities directly to Safari in Tiger (10.4) - so why did I write this? Because all of the existing (Free) RSS readers are approaching the problem from the wrong side.
I treat my RSS feeds more like email than anything else, and the current crop of RSS reader is more a hybrid between iTunes and a web browser. I wrote Feed to address this issue."
Lektora from Lektora Technologies is available for Mac, Windows, and Linux. "Lektora gathers the latest news from your favorite web sites and builds you an easy-to-read virtual newspaper. Lektora enables easy and efficient reading of web logs and news site RSS feeds within IE and Firefox."
