Default rss

I'm in shock to realise rss readers can't read a HTML page. I know the technology is in it's infincy but not being able to read 99% of the nets contains does seem somewhat silly.
I've subscribed to Google reader but as yet none of my favourite websites have a rss feed service, in fact I doubt they ever will. Is there a way around this?

So far I've found a site http://page2rss.com/ where you can add URL's but it doesn't seem to notice when the web page is updated - maybe checks titles but not contains perhaps?.

Is there a better way, am I missing something, or is rss just over-hyped and completely rubbish idea?

Could you share a forum that has rss? I tried your hockey forum, but no rss was found.

I have the feeds create threads in the appropriate forums. Here is an Example.

And here is one on another Site.
