Well all the advantages people associate with LOBs:
- single place for all data * for backups * for replication * for ACLs

I often just care about the first two, in which case I simply employ a
mod_rewrite rule, that points to the on disc version of the file and
fals back to serving directly from the database (but also dump a file to
the proper location on disc).
