Huh? Look at the XML that is not XML?

It's XML alright. Here's something to get you started:

    $doc = new DOMDocument();
    $doc->load("http://services.mobile.de/ ...yadda...");

    $result = [];
    $items = $doc->documentElement->getElementsByTagName("item");
    foreach ($items as $item) {
        $result[] =[
            "key" => $item->getAttribute("key"),
            "url" => $item->getAttribute("url"),
            "description" => $item->textContent,
        ];
    }

    print_r($result);

Assumes you can open remote files (i.e. that allow_url_fopen is enabled)
and that the XML namespaces are not important for your task.
