It looks like both those RSS links should work- can you make sure you haven't put any spaces before or after the URL in the box? Cheers.

Hi Raoul, I know you want the App RSS, but I'm just diagonsing whether it's a problem with the App RSS link or with your RSS screen. It may be that that the Apple RSS link is not in the correct format of BuzzTouch. One way to fix this would be to create an external importer through a blog that receives the RSS from Apple, and converts it to one that would be compatible. You can email me at (removed) if you need help. Otherwise, it should be possible to use the XML points feature. EDIT// if anyone else needs help, please just ask for my email again. Thanks.

The feed works fine, you just need to specify the right xml data points. See this screenshot. It will show you how to set it up. http://www.jc-evans.com/uploads/rss.png

^^ haha that's much simpler than what I was intending to do. I was planning to use a processor, however the OP wasn't willing to pay for web hosting.
