The main problem is that Stream per Streams API is not what you expect from an IO stream, but it's more what Blob should've been (Blob without synchronous size). What we want I think is a real IO stream. If we also need Blob without synchronous size is less clear to me. > I do agree the API > should allow for scenarios where data can be discarded, given that is an > advantage of a Stream over a Blob. It does not seem to do that currently though. It's also not clear to me we want to allow multiple readers by default. > That said, Anne, what is your suggestion for how Streams can be consumed? I don't have one yet. -- http://annevankesteren.nl/
