What Java library would you say is the best for consuming and parsing feeds? Requirements:

  • Embeddable
  • Supports Atom & RSS
  • Has caching architecture
  • Should be able to deal with any feed format the same way

(Please: one suggestion per answer.)

I like ROME, although it's not without its flaws - no caching architecture so you'll have to do that yourself, and you can sometimes get problems trying to read RSS and Atom in the same way due to the inherent nature of allowing multiple content fields in Atom.
