Feed Description: .NET and everything nice
Well, during my last re-install I took the opportunity to go ahead and switch from Feeddemon to RSS Bandit. While Nick dodged the latest bullet headed for his software its only a matter of time before my initial concerns become a reality. I would rather switch now then wait for the impending disappointment. I have heard great stuff about RSS Bandit so I figured I would give it a shot.
So far I am mostly impressed, the import went flawlessly and it has a ton of cool features. I only have a couple problems so far:
I get some strange setup error sometimes when I launch the tool, something about not being able to read from the resource file. Not sure where this comes from.
It seems to update rather sporadically, I can’t seem to force an entire folder to update… or I just haven’t figured out how yet.
I would also love to be able to configure more network connections for feed updating, I have a ton of them and wouldn’t mind RSS Bandit updating 5 of them at a time.
Other than these small issues I am pretty impressed with RSS Bandit, especially when comparing it to commercial products like Feeddemon.
