would be cool if they and rumble added blossom

Odysee's bittorrent protocol is more scalable in this case, it achieves persistence for content by ensuring users also host it, via P2P.
Blossom still requires dedicated servers and to my knowledge has no chunk-based fetching from different sources.
Odysee essentially overcame this the same way BitTorrent works, by making every client app a server - You stream the video, then hold it for x amount of time locally, and seed that video back to other watchers in the background.
Only way for Nostr to do the same, would be to have clients host a local relay (which some do, although there used to be more chatter and development about this a couple years ago) AND a Blossom server also, and you'd need to be able to fetch chunks from different sources, which I don't believe Blossom can do.
doesnt it also have a shitcoin?
could add cashu payments to blossom for files as needed

I think many users would, myself included.
But I think there's value in how Odysee does it by turning every client into a pseudo-seedbox.
Think about what every app on your devifes caches - But sharing said cache.
It's more decentralised, resilient, censorship-resistant and because of that, especially when paired with the idea of local Nostr relays running with clients, keeps more with the spirit of Nostr.
That sounds like it would be awesome. Something like LBRY client, but it takes cash payments.
