Please bear in mind any terms and conditions in using a third-party RSS
feed—these should be clearly indicated on the originating Web site.
The addition of the RSS feed reader to your page automatically subscribes

subscribing to RSS feeds or podcasts via Web browsers and iTunes, but here
we'll focus on how to include the feed on your page and have it automatically
receive articles or episodes.
