Not that much space, government, university and private companies networks do this as a matter of fact. Space is cheap why install gigs when you can get terrabytes relatively cheap for a SAN.
I only use about a gig a week at most, usually far less about 30 meg a day in logs at home monitoring everything, which if I wanted to could be backed up to dvd.
And its not that hard to datamine a sniffer, especially if you have one which already gives a graphical display. You dont need phorm for that and as I said Virgin already do this sort of stuff without phorm and for emails its a legal requirement by HM Gov to store them and has been since at least 2000.
