That's the dirty little secret of a lot of web storage and hosting sites. They can sell you gigs upon gigs of storage because in all likelihood, you'll never use all of it, or by the time you do, storage will have come down in price.
Sure there are some users who will max out their accounts, but those will be averaged by those who hardly use any.
