Before rolling my own RSS parser, is there a really good open-source parser already written for C#?

Seems like the RSS.NET library is worth a try. It does seem to be reasonably complete. And judging by the code examples, it seems very easy to use.

Edit: I was looking for this earlier but couldn't find it for some reason... RSS syndication is now in fact built into the .NET Framework 3.5 as part of WCF. See this MSDN magazine article for an introduction (scroll down for the section about the syndication API). Also see the answer to this SO thread.

RSS.NET isn't open source any longer :(. It really seems like a great product.
Yeah, didn't realise that. Quite unfortunate...
See the update to my post. It seems like you have a solution existing in the .NET Framework 3.5. :)

There's one called Argotic Syndication Framework

If I were to roll my own, I would probably use this one as a reference.

I recently used FeedDotNet from codeplex. It was very simple to use, took very little time to get working.
