Hi Pradeep,
Good list! I learned of a few resources I haven't heard of before.
One more you may want to add to the list is our own Email to RSS tool at RevResponse. What differentiates it from the ones you have listed above is that we help site owners monetize through free resources they provide their readers such as eBooks, whitepapers and magazines. We add them as a Featured Offer in the email newsletters and pay publishers on a per lead basis. It's a win-win situation – the readers get material relevant to their interest and the publisher earns revenue by providing something of value instead of sending someone to a third-party site.
I'd love to explain it in more detail if you'd like. We also have an affiliate program you can participate in. Check it out and let us know what you think – http://www.revresponse.com/rss-to-email-tool.

I never knew that you can also monetize rss feeds. Bloggers need to check out all of these sites to maximize their online earnings.
