    So, EZRSS is dead...

    I've been waiting for it to come back because some feeds still come through in Google Reader, but it doesn't look likely at this stage. Can anyone recommend a replacement?

    It's the RSS feed generator for EZTV, which is a torrent aggregator for TV shows. I don't feed the RSS into anything, I just keep an eye on them in Google Reader.

    Does reader not still offer the subscribe to any page option - could try subscribing to search results or the series page.

    Or look for a scraper.

    Nope, they dropped it. And although I could use Page2RSS or similar to sub to a page, I'm really looking for an actual feed. There's a few of them out there, was just checking in case someone here had already don't the research.

    Seems google will let you create a feed from search results, if you have an account - and you're using reader.

    2 options listed here


    At the risk of teaching my granny to suck eggs - use a search in the form

    site: sitename querystring

    It's not for search results though, it's for show feeds.

    And something like this (in google) is a close approximation (without relying on someone to produce a scrapper)

    allinurl:ep better off ted site:eztv.it

    (ep is optional)

    it won't bring the shows in one-by-one though A N Mouse; or rather it will, but in an unmanageable format, and I really just couldn't be arsed to hack together a scraper right now. I appreciate the effort, but it isn't going to cut it I'm afraid.

    Trying showRSS atm, see how I get on.
