This topic cannot be discussed without mentioning file sizes. The infrastructure probably isn't robust enough for this. But I could see it being built with references to torrents magnet links or Usenet.
Hopefully someone who's smarter than me in coding will build this one day.
The beauty of this approach is that it doesn't require additional hosting infrastructure. Files can live anywhere, including torrents; relays store small events with signed metadata (NIP-94).
