The thing about feeds is that you have to check them in an RSS reader, which people are less likely to do than checking their email. 
Interestingly, if you click on a MobileRead member's name next to their post, you get a few options, one of which is to "Track Posts by ____ via RSS". Here's yours  https://www.mobileread.com/forums/mem...d.php?u=196655
Firefox (and I think Internet Explorer) allow you to subscribe as a Live Bookmark. Chrome does not.

Thanks eschwartz. Yeah, this one article I read made it sound like email subscription beat RSS feed hands down.
And that RSS link was really good. Explained it really well. Thanks.
My Atom/RSS feed is working. I was going to test it with an my own email address, but before I did I wanted to ask you if you could suggest a RSS reader (see screenshot) that would be a good one?
Seems Blogger (which is what I have) has a pretty streamlined process for adding the email thing. Which is nice.
Thanks.
