Seems like much (half?) of RSS market is folks monitoring streams of websites that they don't visit regularly or monitor w/ non-RSS solutions?
- voidfiles 14y agoOut of all the feeds that I checked CNN had the largest number of Google Reader subscribers. If you are right, I would argue that CNN market penetration is lower then 50% and thus the feed reader market would be bigger.
- gz5 14y agoGood point, I would guess it is lower than 50% of total (irrespective of active vs. not active). Not sure where you sourced your GR data but maybe the ratios of GR/uniques across a few different types of sites to find out if GR ratios varies by site type could sharpen the straw man.
- voidfiles 14y agoAgreed.
