A BLOB is just a block of indeterminate, untyped data. You reference it
by a pointer and a length and recover it the same way. Sqlite will
store it as a linked list of pages.
Think of it as a file, which is a pointer and a length, stored by the
file system as a group or a group of groups of linked disk sectors.
When you open a file and memory map it you get a pointer and a length
for the file, that is compatible with a BLOB. When you recover a BLOB
you can write it to a file using a write API call, which has as its args
a file descriptor to an open file, a pointer and a length.

At one point there was a project that did something like this, and it
was called Route66. I think it used mysql, perl and a player called
splay. You might google it.
