I believe that if someone made a videoblog about hiking, their content would most likely not be viewed via RSS but my singular page views
Well, blip.tv doesn't have very sophisticated stats yet (it'd be cool to have syndication subscriptions as well as views), and the vlog is still very new and not really fully formed and not at all promoted anywhere, but here are the stats for Hiking & Camping with Johnnyb (http://johnnyb.blip.tv/):
| Browser | Views | Sites | Users | Referers |
| Firefox | 15 | 11 | 4 | 2 |
| Internet Explorer | 7 | 6 | 2 | 1 |
| Jakarta | 5 | 2 | 1 | 1 |
| Mozilla | 4 | 2 | 2 | 1 |
| aRts | 3 | 2 | 1 | 1 |
| QuickTime | 3 | 3 | 1 | 1 |
| Democracy | 2 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| Doppler | 2 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| iTunes | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| curl | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
iTunes is probably my own subscription, as are some of those Firefox and Mozilla views. I note FireAnt isn't on the list-- not sure what that means; perhaps "QuickTime" is the FireAnt pull? So most people viewing the vlog have checked it out on the web.
If you want, I can keep you updated when the vlog turns into more than just a crappy mish-mash of badly-edited clips and images.

RSS is still unknown to the rest of the world, most people I know don't even know what an aggreagator is. Many of my friends who have blogs on Xanga or Blogger don't even know what a feed is or that they even have one...
I guess this just goes to show that subscribers is not popularity of content, but popularity of content within a select group of people who use RSS, therefore the topics that get the most subscribers are the ones that are geared more towards the blog/tech/gadget side of the spectrum...
Screw subscription numbers, just make content!!!
thank you...
