Weird RSS feed problems with Bloglines & GigaOm site

I use Bloglines as my RSS Reader (at work and at home) and noticed that since Om Malik's site GigaOm went through the server upgrade the feed hasn't been updating in Bloglines. After taking into account DNS propagation issues, and on some further investigation, I found that the link to the feed as published by Feedburner is this which is returning HTML (not RSS) in the browser (it actually returns a 404 Not Found first). Hence the problem...

I fixed the problem by setting the feed to: this which apparently points to the right location. Hope this isn't a problem for any other frequent readers and that I was the only one on Bloglines affected...
