How much of this is due to the fact the “long tail” bloggers stopped blogging and hence people started unsubscribing? I think a lot. Blogging caught on, everyone started doing it, then it got old and now only some people do it.

Another possible explanation: people can only be inundated with so much information. For instance, while in theory I could listen to thousands of bands on Real Rhapsody, I really only listen to a couple dozen. I lose track of them all. Same with blogs. I’m sure there are lots that I would like, but I simply can’t process that many of them. Maybe people have just realized they can’t realistically subscribe to a lot of feeds. I’ve found my tolerance is about 125ish.
