Nice work!

Any recommendations on an OS X version of an RSS that can handle the Youtube feed?

Sadly I know next to nothing about Mac RSS Feed Readers..

Here is a list I found

But what you want is something that is desktop software, that can import OPML files, and display YouTube feeds that are playable in a content window..

Many of the ones I found with a quick search seemed to be commercial software that costs, or browser based reader a bit like Newsblur.com.

I tried to load my OPML list into Newsblur and it did it, but it more or less choked the site with that many YouTube channels to sync up.

Sorry I can't be of more help. We probably need an Apple fan to dish out the OS X gen on RSS readers.
