A feed reader is an application that receives feeds and displays the content of them. This application is automatically updated whenever new content is added. One of the benefits is that it makes it very convenient to follow a blog without having to to go back to it and see if new entries have been posted. Another one is that it gives one a chance to have information aggregated into one place where it can be easily accessed when the reader needs it.
Drawbacks to using feed readers is that not all websites support RSS feeds and therefore it's not possible to subscribe to all website that one would want. Also Some of the information that comes on the feed reader is not relevant to the reader's interests although the reader might have subscribed to the feed.
