As mentioned with cloud computing upload is key .. virgin offer so called unlimited online storage but with my key family pics music and video at 500Gb it would be a joke to try to upload hence the server (backs up the family clients etc. as well)

You might find it more secure, to use a paid service like
Livedrive. I use them for all our work files and media. Currently 2.1Tb. You can stream video from them via FTP into clients like XBMC.
