I can understand it. Too much crap coming through. Would a moderated version work? Maybe less work than posting news by hand?

Actually I filtered the feeds till about a month ago using Yahoo Pipes (cool thing, BTW).
I gave it up after dropping the News section in favour of the manufacturer forums.
I reckon this was the time when people got really annoyed because of the higher visibility combined with the unfiltered brand news rather than the system news.
I actually liked it. The "previews" at the various photo sites out there are basically just rephrased versions of the information on the manufacturer sites so I don't bother with these secondary information anymore. The feeds were a good trigger here.
