I think you can do a redirect so that you dont lose your subscribers - I have done this on my blog and if you click on the standard feed url it redirects you to the feedburner one:

you need to modify the .htaccess file with something like that:

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9} /(feed|wp-atom|wp-feed|wp-rss|wp-rdf|wp-commentsrss)(.+) HTTP/ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^feed [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !^(FeedBurner|FeedValidator) [NC]
RewriteRule .* http://feeds.feedburner.com/XXXXXX? [R=307,L]
RewriteRule ^comments/?.*$ http://feeds.feedburner.com/XXXXXXX/comments [L,R=302]

Replace XXX with name of your feed. Hope that helps...
