Merged feeds

Hi all,

My affiliate partner merge merchants feeds by products in 1 feed. That's usefull because we haven't duplicate products but it's hard parse.

example :

<products>

<product>

  <id>582593</id>

  <name>Samsung PS-42E71H</name>

  <manufacturer>Samsung</manufacturer>

  <description>107 cm, Widescreen, Plasma, HDTV, Stereo</description>

I need to parse it and inject it in the current database. I think I will create a special import.php file which use MagicParser.
What do you think of that ? Will it be hard to code ?

Cheers
