Answer 1

Depends what you’re trying to do – if you just need to read what comes back, then you could load the document into an XmlDocument and examine it programmatically e.g.

XmlDocument rdsDocument;

HttpWebRequest request = WebRequest.Create("https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id") as HttpWebRequest;
request.Accept = "application/xrds+xml";
HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();

rdsDocument = new XmlDocument();
rdsDocument.Load(response.GetResponseStream());
