Hi looks interesting and useful! What's the differences between newscatcher (python) vs. newscatcherapi.com? Is there any limit on using newscatcher (python) as shown in the pricing pages? Also, I was looking at https://newsapi.org . How does your python API compare? I see that in newsapi, it also get old articles; do you implement similar features?

There's seems to have a lot of news crawler APIs lately, a quite google and found these: [1] https://currentsapi.services/en/product/price [2] https://aylien.com/news-api/ [3] https://www.cityfalcon.com/products/api/financial-news

Why did you choose to ship the list of RSS feeds as an SQL database? This makes it hard to keep it up to date and submit pull requests with additional sources. Would it not be better to keep that info in a json file or a dict / list in a python module?
