#2I'm usually the first to defend developers who want to charge for their apps, but in this case it seems quite ridiculous

Haha yeah I had the same exact reaction but if he/she can people to pay then good for them. They've found a pain point someone's willing to pay for :-)

#5I think the page layout is very good. I felt nicely oriented and I quickly understood what your product does.
Pricing on subscriptions seems like the wrong approach. If someone wants to sign up, you're making them do a math problem. They'll have to leave your page to check reddit to see how many subscriptions they have exactly. Sending people to reddit is probably a bad step to have in any purchase funnel.
I think it does solve a problem. In my experience, reddit does a mediocre job at sampling Front Page stories from my subscriptions.
The $0.99 per 5 subscriptions pricing is meh, though. I think a free 5 subscriptions plan with an unlimited plan for $XX/year would sit better.
Good luck with this!

#8I've been using a homemade one for the last half year and just released it after seeing this :) http://blanket.io
Notable difference is that it accepts any rss feed, and also tries to summarize articles.
