Hello,

Now I'm in the middle of convincing the PenguinTV author, which is the
RSS reader used on the XO laptop  (the children's laptop), why he
should add support for XSPF.  And I'm not good at explaining things.

Would someone here write up the reasons on why XSPF is better than RSS
for content distribution, and by that I mean podcasts and video and
shi--stuff?  If it's worth its own article, we'll publish it on
xspf.org with credit (and you keep the copyright, of course).  So,
c'mon.

We could even do a mash-up of community contributions!  That would be nice.
