5 Magazine News Feeds
News feeds allow you to see when websites have added new content. You can get the latest headlines and audio in one place, as soon as its published, without having to check the the website you've taken the feed from.
For our audio feeds, you can subscribe to them for free in iTunes and have the latest mixes downloaded to your computer as soon as they're available. See below for more info.
The most common way to view feeds are online readers that you browse just like any other website on the internet. A number of well-known companies (such as Google Reader, MyYahoo and more - the most popular options can be added with one click below) allow you to add 5 Magazine's feeds to your homepage. Simply click on the badge and you'll be taken to a page where you can login or register and add our feed automatically. Some browsers (such as Firefox also can act as feed readers on their own.
You can also subscribe to the feed via a desktop application that you download to your computer (you can get a wide variety, mostly of them for free, at software dumps such as here; for Mac OSX, it's hard to beat the price [free!] or functionality of NetNewsWire).
We currently publish three feeds for public use:
