Companies can have requirements for off-site storage of data that is not or cannot be kept on-line. My company does. Also virtual tape technology has its drawbacks regarding cost for some companies. The company I work for already has about 70 TB of data that needs to be backed up and shipped off-site regularly.

What do you mean by “online”? Mission critical data is a heck of a lot more secure in a SAS certified data center than it is on a hunk of tape in the back seat of someone’s car.
