You need a local copy, if you don't have a local copy it means you either have
to
A) have the file in memory forever, which is bad if the file is big.
B) access the remote server every time you need to read the file, e.g.
rendering a new page, which is bad because you create extra traffic and is
dependent on the remote server disappearing.

So a local copy is the best thing to do, no?
