There are for real reasons already - I work in manufacturing and collaboration is really annoying with gigabyte-sized files going back and forth - not to mention the browser CAD / simulation tools that could be made if the pipes were far bigger.

Friends with a 3D scanning company are FedExing crates of 2TB drives across the US to get around this - it's actually cheaper...
