Storing of media files/data in MySQL

[Michael Edlund]

Are there any special performance considerations I should have in mind 
when making the decision of whether to store a large number of browser 
uploaded media files (images, audio and video) in BLOB-fields in MySQL 
or whether I should choose to store them in the file directory of the 
web server with only references to them in the database?
