You're right, there is a difference between a few line excerpts with a link to the full article at the original website & using the entire article without giving any credit or link back. Fortunately, this is easy to remedy when you create your RSS feed. Wordpress, Blogger etc. all have the option of choosing to syndicate a portion or the full post. You can also add footer information with another link to your site, copyright info & so on.
I think the problem with the RSS-to-splog programs is giving the user the ability to change the original RSS feed to swap out links (like a poker site that uses syndicated content & changes all original referrer links to his own).
