For AngularJS 1.x apps, you can build an array of Urls as they are created and then clean them up in the $onDestroy function of the component. This is working great for me.

For those looking to avoid garbage collection on the URL or strange behavior, just declare your blob like this: const url = URL.createObjectURL(blob, { oneTimeOnly: true }). You can always save the blob and generate a new Url later if needed.
