The free internet might be gone in the next decade. Probably time to buy a few hard drives and do some archiving. I don't just mean piracy. Articles, blogs, anything you find precious.

It's a good time to get an RSS reader and build some direct connections to your sources. They're coming for the "aggregators" next.

rss is dead. and aggregating won't be your main issue anyway.

RSS isn't dead. I use it daily. Most podcasts — all if you subscribe to the philosophy that mp3s without rss aren't podcasts — are built on it. Most websites still provide a feed, even if the owner isn't aware of it.
