Because QR codes are a stop-gap and won't exist in a few years? Seems like low-power Bluetooth will replace QR codes in the not-so-distant future.

- Juha 15y agoQR's benefit is that it is so low tech, so it will have usecases even after something else comes around (print media for example). Btw, I have been under impression that the NFC technology is coming as the next step, haven't heard about low-power BT.
- lukeholder 15y agoI think QR codes and also any type of near field communication is just not going to catch on. if I am in a store and I want to make a purchase on in some way connect to the store, wouldnt it just be easier to install that stores app, or visit nikemob.com and communicate and make purchased through the internet? shouldn't the internet be the communication medium? Apple is already doing this, you buy items on your phone, walk into a store and pick up the item and walk out. You can even purchase in the app while in store without talking to anyone. no need to scan a qr code, or connect with NFC.
