I know it may come out as shocking, but majority of Internet users also don't listen to podcasts.
And listening to podcasts doesn't mean using feeds. I personally have listened to some from YouTube; Spotify also offers them.

And even if there are cases where RSS is used in background as TCP/IP is, then it doesn't change the fact it's in background. Average Joe still won't know how to subscribe to blog's RSS feed.
Podcasts are basically the only place where feeds still thrive (alas it's also changing). RSS may not be dead, but unfortunately it's a niche which to average consumer is as good as dead.
