It makes sense to have separate repositories when you have well-defined uses for them.
I have a separate repository just for music and podcasts, which I can put various places where I have no need of the overhead of a tree of other files.
If you're using it for whatever arbitrary large files you accumulate, I find it's useful to have them in one repository. This way I can rearrange things as makes sense. It might make sense to have \"photos\" and \"isos\" as categories today, but next year you might prefer to move those under 2011/{photos,isos}. It would certainly make sense to have different repositories for home, work, etc.
How to split repositories up for a home directory is a general problem that the [vcs-home](http://vcs-home.branchable.com)
project has surely considered at one time or another.
