Ben, Your timing is pretty good, as this very insightful blog entry was just posted by DeWitt Clinton, the lead engineer at Amazon. The first paragraph or two is just a setup, but he then goes into your situation exactly and proposes the best way to work around your problem. http://www.unto.net/unto/work/on-rss-and-atom/ Perhaps this entry will help you sort out your questions.
