For an Android app I am currently working on, I would like to be able to parse raw XML data from an RSS feed and display it. The RSS feed in question uses Feedburner for publishing, and my Google-fu has so far given me nothing on how to get the raw XML. Any tips?

Click on Load, enter RSS feed URL and it will output XML data on the left side and HTML data on the right side. This tool also supports to convert RSS XML to JSON. Show activity on this post. If you view the feed in Firefox it'll read like an RSS reader, but if you view the source code you've got it in XML format.
RSS is a Web content syndication format. Its name is an acronym for Really Simple Syndication. RSS is a dialect of XML. All RSS files must conform to the XML 1.0 specification, as published on the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) website.
The best way to view raw RSS is with CURL over the command line. Browsers can alter the source (firefox in particular) when showing it to you so the best thing is to get it unfiltered from curl.
From Google Chrome you can update the url like so and you will get the raw xml:
view-source:http://feeds.feedburner.com/TheAppleBlog

Try adding fmt=xml to your url. For ex: http://feeds.feedburner.com/blogname?fmt=xml.
I am having other strange problems for iOS SDK using XPathQuery to extract data from the response.
