Movieguy,

It is always best hearing (seeing) it from the source. Regardless of any value I may envision for the indirect method, "you" as an industry professional can relate directly to the value proposition.

Again, this is only one small component. There are more that I prefer not to discuss while the competition is watching ;)

Best,
Be Confident

That is a good point. This problem exists outside of the world of barcodes too -- you publish a URL in a magazine and then want to control what it does later. People just make that URL a redirector.

Likewise, it's common to just encode a URL that can be changed to redirect to any location in a barcode. In fact people do this also because they want to embed a shortened URL that produced a less dense code. So I might embed "http://bit.ly/foobar" and then I can control where it redirects later, as a bonus.

Yes, you're absolutely correct. MG. Flexibility and control are the two biggest items key that marketers want. This produces better and more efficient and cheaper marketing campaigns.
