Only hard to fill if you're dealing with text only. Say you're building a video copyright detection crawler and you want to store videos from all over the internet.

An HD video stream from Netflix uses about 3GB per hour. So 100PB gives you about 4000 years of content.

Just in 2012 alone Google stored 76 PB of content. With higher quality feeds and multiple sites you can quickly start getting beyond the limit.
