Instead of calling it a donation, just call it the 'pro' version and add like a supporter badge on the header or let them do something silly like change the color of their header like on HN. Will probably get more funds that way and won't get cynical people to roll their eyes at questionable use of the word 'donation' whether it is or not.

Alternatively, keep calling it a donation and let people donate whatever they want, with $9 as the minimum. A good RSS reader is worth a lot more than $9 a year to some people.

I like this :)

I don't want to differentiate people who can't pay.

Looks like an awesome service... I need a replacement for Google Reader so I'll try this one out. Also, please consider accepting bitcoin so I can pay without revealing my private credit card information. Update: I am trying it out right now and I've noticed it's taking quite a long time to load my Google Reader profile. My Reader profile is absolutely enormous - hundreds of blogs and thousands upon thousands of read…

Or for ironic fun, accept Google Wallet XD

This looks great, gonna give it a try. It's simple, and that's harder to do well.

I did not sign in with Google, but the import page still says "Importing…" without any action on my part. Will there be an option to manually upload a list of feeds?

You'll be prompted to authorize when your place in the queue is up. The importer queue is insanely busy right now so it'll be a little while.

Any chance to have OPML import? Will definitely remove a lot of load off of the Google importer.

The text says "You can safely navigate away from this page while your feeds are being imported " so it's confusing some of us who have not initiated an import.

Good luck with it!
