From BBC:

Gadget lovers are so hungry for digital data many are carrying the equivalent of 10 trucks full of paper in ‘weight’.
Music, images, e-mails, and texts are being hoarded on mobiles, cameras laptops and PDAs (Personal Digital Assistants), a Toshiba study found.
It found that more than 60% kept 1,000 to 2,000 music files on their devices, making the UK ‘digitally fat’.
‘Virtual weight’ measurements are based on research by California Institute of Technology professor Roy Williams.
