Optimal: listen to feed content
I just noticed that Optimal plays audio from within the outline (or you can download the enclosure).
So now not only can you read the contents of a feed, you can also listen to it…screen shot.
Other OPML Readers are OPod, Bitty, and Grazr.
Bitty displays a “play” button but it opens your PC music player.
Grazr lacks a play button full stop.
Something I noticed is that Grazr and Bitty go one more step by showing full-text of the post, whereas Optimal stops at the title of the post.
Also Grazr lacks to show the OPML URL of an inclusion, whereas Bitty displays it at the bottom of the screen, and Optimal offers it if you click on the red arrow.
[ADDED 04/04/06: Grazr announced it is adding an audio player and open the URL of individual nodes (handy for OPML inclusions).

Hi John, as of today Alpha version 6 of Grazr supports experimental audio enclosure playback. It’s a little buggy but work continues!

Hi John, another quick note, new in Alpha version 6 as well: right click on any node to get the URL (using the normal browser context menu). Also with a ’status’ bar open it should display the URL on rollover as well.
