Blocked. I don't get why people do this. Seems against the point of RSS. Craigslist does this too.

Since the request comes from AWS the IP address probably changes every time. They must be blocking a whole range of IPs.

I'm not interested in chasing publishers like this down, but will happily provide more info to you if you want to try to get it unblocked.
