 The [http://wordpress.org/news/2013/05/wordpress-3-6-beta-3/ latest blog
 post] on wordpress.org included links to a playlist on Rdio and Spotify.
 As per #24242 these are converted to oEmbeds.

 When viewing this post in Google Reader, neither the Rdio or the Spotify
 embeds are displayed, presumably because they both use an iframe. This led
 to the paragraph above it not making a lot of sense (see screenshot).

 Is it safe to assume that any oEmbed which uses an iframe will not be
 displayed in an RSS reader? I genuinely don't know the answer to this as I
 only use Google Reader (not for much longer of course).

 Should we implement a fallback (ie. just display the link as-is) in the
 RSS feed if the oEmbed uses an iframe?
