If someone mentioned that term to me, I would think it was an RSS feed for details about a manufacturer's product. Hmm, clever idea actually, push updated info about a product to other sites via RSS.

Or just a semi-static XML feed you can download when you want.

My definition of a product feed would be am XML or RSS file that you access to obtain up to date info on a product range.

XML is a very simple way of presenting information so that it can be used by another application to use the info in a meaningful way.

Did you try Googling it [google.com]? I get dozens of returns on it, and it seems pretty clear this is a marketing/technical term used by vendor sites to describe an API.
