The paradigm shifts involved
-
Reader: move towards maintaining overview and handling end-user
-
Reader only requires a "header only" feed to populate
overviews and then also access to spool server,
insignificant amount of bandwidth for baseline operations
plus a maximum of whatever the client would have spent
to fetch the article from a remote server under other
design models
-
By transferring the article once on to the reader, and using
caching, bandwidth savings could also be seen as many readers
may be downloading the same articles over and over again
