I love Feeds, I use it a lot. That being said it has an extremely unintuitive UI and confusing documentation. It took me a long time to get steadily going and I'm still not sure what everything does or why. (Example: The standalone form vs. node type that has nodes with urls attached to it. What's the difference? Is it that the form only takes one url? Is it really necessary to create a node type just to add urls? Something you could do in an admin form with Title - URL boxes. Very confusing.)

Anyway, one thing I don't get is the Views integration, you can apparently add a view type: feeds source. Why would you need to do that? Could anybody give me a use case? I'm sure there's something you can do with it that I haven't figured out.

I was wondering this same thing. What I actually need is to associate the feeds source with profiles or user accounts. Right now I'm doing this with CCK but it's clunky.
