Why would you want to combine multiple feeds into one? If you are connecting the feed into clients that can only
access a single feed at a time - like the cool RSS
Screensaver in Mac OS-X 10.4
(Tiger) or a hardware device /
widgets etc… Other uses could be, combining all your favorite bloggers who
update weekly into a single feed so you get your daily fix… Filtering by keyword feature gives you some more control.
Here are some other ways to combine feeds in this excellent TUAW
post.

FeedShake: Combine/Filter multiple RSS feeds into one
Reader Comments
(Page 1)2. As does FeedDigest - http://www.feeddigest.com - but signups are down for a few days to fix IE bugs(!). (Disclaimer: it's mine) FeedDigest also mixes to Atom, if you prefer, lets you filter by a Google style search (with booleans, etc), and can output as HTML or JavaScript to include on your own sites.

3. Feedshake now opened a new advanced feed generation section. It now supports custom RSS tags, podcasts etc..

4. See also rssmix.com. I haven't used Feedshake yet, but I've used both feedjumbler and feeddigest. Feeddigest offers duplication removal, they have a really nice interface and both free and paid service levels. Feedjumbler, if I remember correctly, is simpler but offers a page for each feed where you can see the sub-feeds that were spliced together to make a meta feed. Running either through Feedburner will create a nice looking page, but won't display any info about the feed. For an example, see http://feeds.feedburner.com/NptechMetaFeed
and

1. Another use for this: maybe you have several feed-producing apps/sites (e.g. blog, flickr, del.icio.us, etc.), but want to provide your readers with a single feed of all your postings that they can subscribe to (with the added advantage that if you add a new site to your portfolio, you can simply add it to the combined feed and those same readers will already be subscribed to it).
BTW, FeedJumbler (http://feedjumbler.com) also does that.
