I know of two separate sites that provide an RSS feed for App Store updates. When I mean updates, I mean added applications, as well as updated applications.
Unfortunately Pinch Media separates those two (which is stupid):
New Applications Feed (http://feeds.feedburner.com/RecentlyAddedIphoneApplications-PinchMedia)
Updated Applications Feed (http://feeds.feedburner.com/RecentlyUpdatedIphoneApplications-PinchMedia)
Also, the app description, what's new in this version, is all very jumbled with no line breaks, and there are no screenshots included. BUT, the feed is updated every 4 hours or so, and the articles within each feed are organized well.
The other feed I know of is this one: feed://webobjects.mdimension.com/iPhoneApps.rss
What's so great about it, is that each article has full information with several screenshots that we see in the App Store! Also, it has new apps AND updated apps in the same feed. HOWEVER, I am noticing that it's not very organized, not updated often, and when I go through my unread articles, I am not seeing updates that I see with Pinch Media feeds above. I wish I could have an RSS feed that mixes the strengths of each.
I read these feeds in my RSS reader (NetNewsWire), but here are some screenshots to illustrate the difference between the two:

With that, anyone know of any other RSS feeds for the App Store, which are better?
