Is there any power shell command to download file and place at Application Root in Windows Azure start-up task? I have geo location binary file(30Mb)which is downloaded from http://www.maxmind.com/app/geolitecity. I don’t want to include binary file in my project, decided to place in blob storage for faster deployment purpose. I tried to read binary from URL using http://en.googlemaps.subgurim.net/, unfortunately no function to read from URL. So i’m finding the way to download that binary file and place in application root directory.

Thanks in advance!

maybe this can help:

In this case file is zipped, you need to unzip the dat file.
