Do you have a URL for your feed that you can share with us so we can see 
what might be wrong? Most of the feed readers you listed should be capable 
of handling CDATA.

Otherwise enter your URL into the feedvalidator at www.feedvalidator.org - 
that might help you determine why it's not working.

Feed readers tend to be fairly good at reading almost anything you throw at 
them as long as it's more or less valid RSS. If your feed is not working in 
a lot of readers then you're probably doing something fundamentally wrong.

The only way we can help you, though, is if you provide a link to your feed; 
or at least paste a sample of what it looks like.
