At the opposite end, I heard a story of actually full storage from the beginning of the century, when I worked at a "large medical and research institution in the Midwest". They had expensive SMB shares (NetApp?) that kept getting full all the time. So they did the sane thing in the era of Napster: they started deleting MP3 files, with or without prior warning. Pretty soon, they got an angry call that music could not be played in the operating room. Oops. Surgeons, as you can guess, were treated like royalty and didn't appreciate seeing their routines disrupted.
