I've tried several RSS reader libraries for PHP. The only one I found that
works 100% of the time is
Zend_Feed_Reader<http://framework.zend.com/manual/1.12/en/zend.feed.reader.html>.
There are so many funky nuances for RSS and Atom feeds across the Internet.

Our app has been using Zend_Feed_Reader on 1000+ RSS feeds for over a year
now and not one parse error has popped up in the error logs. I first tried
just using DOMDocument and 10% to 20% of feeds had unexpected elements and
namespaces. Then I used SimplePie, added some fixes to it but still got
errors on 3% to 5% of feeds around the Internet. I don't know why RSS/Atom
is so freaking complicated in practice, but Zend_Feed_Reader seems to
handle everything.
