The mind blowing part here is not my unix tool, it is showing that nostr is a practical decentralized alternative to Usenet NZBs (torrents are a different thing)

- Blossom servers do not need to store a whole large video file

- Blossom servers do not need to stream an entire large file

- Blossom operators have plausible deniability in terms of content as the segments are encrypted (and they may not have all) and they don't control the key

- Video clients now have mutiple failovers if a segment is stored in multiple servers

- There are bandwidth savings if the video is not watched entirely

- Content creators can exchange the AES key against a zap

Youtube, here we come.

The missing part I see is a standardized way to do discoverability of the blobs. Something like DHT, but its just an event written in a particular nip that link users to the various pieces.

Nip-01 + blossom blob + Nip-?? to have a decentralizable, replicable, indipendently updatable (clients should decide who trust in updating nip-?? note)
