I was wondering how long it would take for them to find a business model.

selling https access doesn't sound like a good one for me, this should be a basic feature with NSA and who knows who else listening in on everything.
They aren't selling https, they're selling early access to https, plus search, priority support, and some other stuff.

If you want some privacy, you have to pay for it. Is that really that unreasonable?
Well, my reflex response is yes. Transport security seems like an odd thing to call a feature for a feed reader. Of course it's possible that it's a brutal cost multiplier for them - I'd be interested to know.
SSL probably doesn't do squat against the NSA.
