I recognize this a lot, but I solved using PostRank to filter some of the feeds. You got to postrank.com, enter the feed you want to filter, see what would be filtered out if you ask for only good posts, great posts og best posts - and subscribe to the one you'd like. The rating of each post is based on how many comments, tweets, diggs, delicious-links etc have been made about that post. I works surprisingly well. Have you tried PostRank?

Also why do you have to read everything, why not just dip into your stuff when you have time? Have you ever thought about triaging your incoming feeds?

It's going to take folks working together to collaboratively tag content, which can then be easily filtered by your favorites. Unlike other tools which have intriguing algorithms in a black box, we believe social feed reading (both real time and intervals) should be transparent. Simple organization, sorting.

It's about random sorting. Information are mostly useless! And everything should be presented at random. Time consumption is the why in choosing (subconsciously) all those nasty (read time consuming) RSS feeds. Every time you add a RSS feed, follow another fellow twitterer and/or subscribe to another podcast, god kills a kitten! Every time you remove RSS feed, god saves 10 kittens. Randomize the feeds and enjoy posts for as many hours you like. You won't get bored by different way of reading all those feeds. It’s not about about Value sorting. It’s about random sorting.
