What are the problems of
[ul]
[li]downloading xml then read when done delete[/li]
[li]parsing a remote file other than it may be moved[/li]
[/ul]
 
It depends on how big your XML is, how reliable your connection is and how quick your XML parser is.

The main problem is an uppy-downy link. On the remote method, it may always fail at some point which will lead you up the garden path thinking that there is a problem with the XML.

The second problem is dodgy XML which may lead you up the garden path thinking that the link is dodgy.
