[OCLUG-Tech] tar or rsync for backup greater than 50Gb

Is a 50Gb or greater reasonable for a tar.gz backup?  I've read that a tar file 
can be as big a 4Tb?  Just wonder at what point is it considered normal 
practiced to move from tar to rsync?  For instance my home directory is 62Gb 
and my media directory is 819Gb.

Just wondering what other people are doing.
