Take a few examples :

Linux ISO packages are stupidly big (talking at least 2 CDs) bar a few (slackware?). Legal content. Ok, it doesnt happen regularly, but it does happen.

Leaving your little chav sister on the internet via Broadband plus....for at least 5hrs, streaming video after video, thats easily 1gb+. Legal content.

Streaming Radio - thanks to most the FM bandwidth in the UK being filled with thrash - again, can eat a nice chunk. Again, legal.

Ebay auction visitors - who keep reloading page after page, can eat up bandwidth too.

These are just examples of general usage that could download gigs a day.

Good point... I didnt think of it like that.
