Default GMail, whats the obsession ?

As per title,

Whats the obsession with 250MB/1GB/2GB storage? I mean what the bloody hell are people recieving in their mailbox ?

I can understand 50 MB perhaps 100MB but I mean, even a weeks worth of emails wouldnt come to 50 MB for most people.

Im at a loss, please explain

The idea is that you never have to delete any mail. That's a blurb, you will have to one day, but not for a while. I use it as a mirror of my main private account which currently sits at 60 meg and contains the past two years' worth of sent and received mail.

I don't get it either. Sick of all the fuss about it too. SpyMac.com have been doing it for ages already without resorting to reading your emails either.

My inbox is about 200mb for the past year, but in the days of multi gigabyte HD even that doesn't make a dent.
