- READ AUTOMATICALLY-SCROLLING RSS NEWS FEEDS -

Am I the only person in this whole universe who doesn't own a TV set?  It's not that I can't afford to buy one.  I just don't want to waste my time watching TV because they often switch subjects and cover the entertainment industry, which I'm not interested in.  On the other hand, I read news a lot.  I'm a self-admitted news junkie who wants to read news from multiple sources at the same time.  That's why I've developed this application.

AllNews Desktop 3 (hereafter, AllNews) is the 3rd installment of an RSS news reader.  Released at the same time is the iOS counterpart called AllNews 3.  AllNews lets you read horizontally-scrolling lines of news from multiple sources around the world simultaneously.  Do I have to scroll news lines manually for myself?  No, AllNews does the scrolling for you.  You just sit relaxed and read news from multiple sources with your hands free.
