A web feed is a specially formatted file that contains text and links. Feeds are meant to be read by computers rather than humans, and they're used to move information around the Web. You can subscribe to a feed with a program called a newsreader (sometimes called a news aggregator). You can use Amazon feeds to track and stay up-to-date with categories of products. For example, if you like Jackie Chan movies you can subscribe to an Amazon feed that lists his latest movies and any new releases will appear in your newsreader. From there you can click to get more detailed information about that new product.

One of the sort options available for most catalogs is Best Match. The results for Best Match vary by catalog, but usually consist of Amazon's featured items for that keyword, or another criteria that Amazon calls relevance rank. Amazon defines relevance rank as: "Items ranked according to the following criteria: how often the keyword appears in the description, where the keyword appears, for example, the ranking is higher when keywords are found in titles, and, if there are multiple keywords, how closely they occur in descriptions, and, finally, how often customers purchased the products they found using the keyword." But I think date based sorts work better for feeds.
