RSS it a type of XML. Your reader should read both if it's up to date with the standards.

Just be careful how you write the XML code. There are two very different, but accepted, standards for RSS; whereas XML is used for things other than RSS like data storage, or dynamic page generation.
Study the Wikipedia entry carefully.

This page helped me out quite a bit with RSS:
Making an RSS feed
It should also give you an idea of how RSS uses XML. In the end it's pretty simple once you know a few things.
