Obsfucating media URL is not useless, it has its own purpose. Here’s an example:

Obsfucating the urls is a good way to prevent typical non-techie audience to guessing the image urls instead of viewing them on site.
Obfuscating the media URL is possible, of course, but it’s meaningless. If you don’t want people to see the actual source, just download the file on your own server and replace the link(s).
