The feed looks fine and can be subscribed to manually in Tunes perfectly well.The encoding error you mention occurs a lot and doesn't normally seem to cause any problems. Error 404 is 'file not found'.We have seen cases where perfectly good feeds couldn't be read by the Store: I've never seen an expanation, and my guess - and I emphasize it is a guess - is that the server is for some reason not responding to requests from the Store when it does to all other requests.You could start by leaving it for a bit and trying again in case it's some sort of temporary glitch. If it still doesn't work I can only suggest you ask the people running your server if they can check the server logs for when this happened.

When the submission fails with the 404 error, iTunes replaces the URL with an all-lower-case version of the same thing. Wondering if it's only trying to access the lower-case version in the first place... going to do some testing.
