In Android context, what are "opaque binary blobs" (OBBs)? This concept was introduced to Android 2.3, for instance here http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/storage/StorageManager.html It seems they are some sort of a-whole-filesystem-in-a-single-file. Though this raises the question about how to create OBBs and if their file structure follow any publicized/open standard. I guess they are useful for multiple applications sharing a big piece of data, for instance many navigation applications sharing a single OBB with map data.
