Air Video: The Best Video Streaming App for iPhone and iPad

Air Video

Have a massive video library but can’t sync it to your iPhone and iPad due to Apple’s lame restrictions on pretty much every video format but H264?  Curse Apple no longer as Air Video ($2.99) is here to save you from incompatible file hell.

After installing a small server on your Windows or Mac desktop just fire up Air Video and within a few seconds you’ll be streaming your favourite movies and TV shows to your iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad.  Videos look great, only take a second or two to load, and don’t buffer constantly while watching.  Air Video will play pretty much anything you throw at it – DivX, Xvid, MKV – as well as your HD videos too.

Best of all, Air Video is a universal app so it will run on your iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad with only a single purchase!

Reeder: The Best RSS Reader for iPhone, iPad, and Mac

While many are getting their news from social media outlets like Twitter these days, I still prefer taking all of my RSS feeds in at once each day, much like sitting down with a newspaper and coffee in the morning, just much more nerdy.

I had been using NetNewsWire as my RSS client of choice since buying my first Mac over 4 years ago, but I was never happy with its mobile versions.  While NetNewsWire’s iPhone app supported Google Reader, it didn’t seem to sync up right with the desktop version and felt slow and clunky.

Fed up, I decided it was time to start searching for a better option.  A few Google searches and questions to my Twitter followers later, it turns out that there’s a new RSS reader for iOS and Mac that everyone is hopelessly in love with — Reeder.

Reeder is available for the Mac ($9.99), iPhone ($2.99), and iPad ($4.99), supports Google Reader, and is extremely clean and polished.  Syncing between devices works perfect every time and articles look great in Reeder’s minimalist interface.  Rather than reading articles in a browser I find myself using Reeder’s Readability integration which strips out all but the article’s text and images so you may continue reading articles in Reeder’s clean interface rather than loading up the publisher’s website.

While the suite of apps is a little pricey in App Store standards, I think I paid $25 for the desktop version alone of NetNewsWire many years ago, so parting with $18 for 3 quality apps that I use on a daily basis was a no brainer.
