I know there was talk recently about RSS readership being a false count since someone may have subscribed and never read, but feedburner gives more accurate stats than just an overall number of subscribers. It would be good to bring the importance of RSS readership - as opposed to only considering page views or UBs - into the light amongst mainstream media, and their money handlers. Can't hurt to let them know how many are reading and how many they could target if they innovated with some more advertising/monetisation strategies for RSS feeds.
