Disadvantages of RSS Feeds (Really Simple Syndication)

Recently, I use to visit some of the websites which are sourcing contents from other popular websites using RSS technology (Really Simple Syndication). Main disadvantages of RSS feeds are :
(1) Web developers can make mirror websites by using the content of such RSS feeds enabled websites
(2) In this website they are sourcing contents from more than one XML feeds of the
same type of portals or websites. So the RSS feeds enabled domain's number of visitors will be decreased
(3) The deleted or expired contents will remain in this type of portals. This also makes problems to the visitors or members of the RSS feeds enabled websites.
(4) Other web developers will misuse the content of the XML feeds enabled websites by designing or arranging improperly, which will also affect to the popular portal that are providing RSS feeds freely to all visitors.
(5) Other web developers may tend to misuse the content of the XML feeds by improper design or arrangement, which will also affect the mother websites that are providing RSS feeds freely to all the visitors.
Example of some websites which are based on RSS Feeds is http://www.usajobsnew.com & http://www.jobsinworld.com.
