Remarks

Used to start reading the contents of a specified MSStream. If the read request was successful, readyState becomes DONE and the loadend event is fired. At that time, the result property contains the raw binary data of the file.

Because readAsBinaryString returns raw binary data, it can be used to ready any file type.
