RSS is undead?

I want to backhand the author of this article for the following:

"It’s wonderfully idealistic, but the reality of RSS is that it lacks the features required by nearly every actor in the modern content ecosystem, and I would strongly suspect that its return is not forthcoming."

He's basically saying that RSS is undead because nobody can make money off it. That's not what RSS is for, you fucking dolt!
