java library for reading RSS and ATOM feeds

I am looking for libraries which can read RSS / ATOM feeds in my J2EE application (based on JBoss Seam).

Is Rome the only application there for reading feeds?

I am assuming the Seam RSS integration is only for generating RSS feeds and not for reading feeds.

Have you had a look into the following list? http://java-source.net/open-source/rss-rdf-tools

Even though it has been mentioned several times, I would suggest using Rome as well.

For Atom it is Apache Abdera: http://abdera.apache.org/

I read somewhere that it is not possible to read RSS feeds via Abdera, since most of the feeds are only in RSS I would prefer a reader which is capable of reading both RSS / Atom feeds.I am looking for suggestions on what would someone do today, if they have to read ATOM / RSS feeds. I wouldn't prefer to use two different libraries for this purpose.

Rome is a very mature, extremely well java-documented library and is still the de facto standard for this job.

For RSS feed ROME only not an option. We have lot like that namely Feed4j, abdera etc. But in these ROME only most widely used.
