 The documentation states the following:
 {{{
 URL that handles the media served from MEDIA_ROOT. Example:
 "http://media.lawrence.com";

 Note that this should have a trailing slash if it has a path component.

 Good: "http://www.example.com/static/"; Bad:
 "http://www.example.com/static";
 }}}

 Why does a path component need to have a trailing slash but a domain
 doesn't?

 We should pick one of these forms, as changing the value affects other
 areas (like the FileField.url attribute).
 I, personally, think the slash-less form makes templates look better:
 {{{
 <a href="{{ MEDIA_URL }}/bla.js">...</a>

 Versus:
 <a href="{{ MEDIA_URL }}bla.js">...</a>
 }}}
