+"""A simple script that attempts to directly download a single blob.
+
+To Do:
+------
+Currently `lbrynet blob get <hash>` does not work to download single blobs
+which are not already present in the system. The function locks up and
+never returns.
+It only works for blobs that are in the `blobfiles` directory already.
+
+This bug is reported in lbryio/lbry-sdk, issue #2070.
+
+Maybe this script can be investigated, and certain parts can be added to
+`lbry.extras.daemon.daemon.jsonrpc_blob_get`
+in order to solve the previous issue, and finally download single blobs
+from the network (peers or reflector servers).
