*this* RSS feed doesn't work

At least not for me. Have I done something wrong, or is it a bug?

How to repro:

1. Add as a feed.
2. Click preview.

Nothing is listed under matched/not matched/downloaded

We will have to add specific support for this feed as it chooses not to link to the nzb file in the title of the feed, but have it as an attachment (which it is perfectly entitled to do, it is just less common).

Not sure what version will include support for this (probably not 0.4.7 anyway)

Upon further inspection, it looks like their webserver is also not setup correctly, and is reporting the wrong content type for the web page. It should be something like 'text/xml' however theirs is responding 'text/html' which is not valid. Our RSS parser does not like invalid Content-Types.

I would recommend contacting www.animeusenet.org and ask them to fix the response headers for the Content-Type so they are 'text/xml'. It will need both their actions, and our changes until you can use that RSS feed.

Or maybe you can modify rss using http://pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/.
I'll try to look at this...

animeusenet have been contacted and asked to fix on their end.

@rAf - thanks, pretty cool. I'll have to check the pipes service out.
