Force the users of the feeds to put your advertising in their feeds.

As far as I remember the reason why Twitter originally scaled back access to their APIs was that 70% of their traffic happened outside of the twitter client.

The second you allow the feed to be presented outside their control they loose any ability to control how people deal with it. It would be easy for a developer to remove the advertising in the feeds.
