itunes - Why does Apple require podcasts to use both new-feed-url and a redirect? -

why apple require podcasts utilize both <itunes:new-feed-url> tag , redirect? seems redirect gives exact same info less info required. should podcast client's behavior when location header , tag's value differ?

here current best guess:

itunes wants allow podcast owners create redirects part of actual fetching process. instance, podcast's feed url be

http://example.com/crawl/step1

if redirect /crawl/step2, , itunes considered redirect same feed move, never go /crawl/step1 again.

but tag, redirects can part of crawling process.
