Longhorn
Microsoft officialy declared its plans to ship RSS support with Longhorn, which is going to be out sometime in the near future. According to Betanews:
I have seen some pictures of Internet Explorer and the only thing new is a little button. Most people are not going to know what to do with RSS (I don't) I think that this is just going to be one more thing to get in the way. Most people use Firefox anyway. I am looking forward to see the new OS Longhorn. I geuss I will just have to wait.
"As reported Friday, Longhorn will provide a common RSS feed list across all applications, common RSS data store for applications to access downloaded content, and an RSS platform sync engine. Subscribing to an RSS feed from within Internet Explorer 7.0 will be similar to adding a Web site to "Favorites." An icon placed in a toolbar will illuminate when feeds have been updated with new content."
