Anytime you use an atttribute or element value you need to follow XML's rules. For URLs you should HTML encode them. This is true for any URL not just for enclosures. While some characters are not problems for XML (the slashes, for example) it's the & ampersand character that's tripping things up. It's not the = equal sign. The error is slightly misleading in that the parser sees the & and expects there to be a valid XML entity reference following it. The equal sign isn't a valid follower and thus the error.
