I'm not an expert but AFAIK VCF isn't "raw" data. Raw data would be the output of a sequencer (fastq) which would be several gigabytes. I recently processed raw data from sequencing a tiny virus (~20k base pairs) and it was around 13GB. Human genome sequence data would probably be tens if not hundreds of GB.

23andMe does genotyping not sequencing

Ah.. okay. I didn't know that. Yes that makes sense now that I think about it. They wont be able to do a full sequencing at their current price.
