Not everyone has, or wants to have a device that they can read rss feeds on.

A lot of people don't even know what rss feeds are.

A lot of people buy newspapers or magazines every day that only contain 20% of content they're actually interested in.

So, why not setup a service where people can choose feed based news sources in a very non-technical way, and then print them out in a newspaper or newsletter format (they choose a template for it) that they can read while commuting to work or similar.

Handheld feed readers may replace the newspaper in future for some, but if you're like me you'll know that it's still nicer to read articles away from any type of screen and as such a service like this may have some merit.

I don't know the ins and outs of modern printing, costs involved etc, but you could imagine a situation where local printers deliver a personalised daily paper to your door everyday as opposed to the current junk that comes through the letterbox!
