Someone explain to me how RSS helps a content provider(blogs, digg, etc..) make money as they are turning traffic away from their site?

If I find a blog that seems interesting, the first thing I do is look for a feed. If there isn't one or it's just partial, I go somewhere else and I don't look back.<p>In today's information-overloaded web, the line between being worth my time and being a waste of my time is thinner than you might think.<p>What you are paying for is the second look.

Just to further explain myself, if I use a free rss reader like google reader and no longer visit a site such as digg, what is the incentive here. Why isn't google sharing their revenue ? I understand with stuff like feedburner you are more than happy to see those subscriptions go up, but what does google reader to for you or the other free ones.<p>
