QuickSub = Very Bad
OK, I don’t mean to slam the product. See, what it does is popup a pretty, dynamic list of XML subscription programs and options and so forth that let the user select the right one for him:

Unfortunately, that’s a bit of a bad thing. People create standards, like the feed:// protocol, so that readers don’t have to ever see this–they just click a feed:// link and their favorite program opens it, because it’s registered itself as an official protocol handler. Standards!!! They make the user experience seamless.
