Some sites are beginning to serve their feeds via intermediaries like FeedBurner. They are doing this, in part, to make it easier for them to get better statistics on their use of the feeds, to off-load bandwidth requirements, or to take advantage of the advertising insertion and management programs of the intermediaries.
Sites could also use a HTTP 302 link on their own site that points to FeedBurner in the end. When FeedBurner dies or when they no longer have desire to use the service, they switch the location of the temporary redirect and all is fine.
