Hello, Kern: sorry for being laconic.
When I mean "human readable" is in the sense of ls, df and other Linux commands:

"-h, --human-readable
print sizes in human readable format (e.g., 1K 234M 2G)"

*What I see today:*

*list media pool=File
+---------+------------+-----------+---------+---------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+------------+
| MediaId | VolumeName | VolStatus | Enabled | VolBytes      | VolFiles | 
VolRetention | Recycle | Slot | InChanger | MediaType | LastWritten         | 
ExpiresIn  |
+---------+------------+-----------+---------+---------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+------------+
|       1 | Vol-0001   | Error     |       1 | 1,286,119,412 |        0 |   
31,536,000 |       1 |    0 |         0 | File1     | 2015-10-21 23:57:35 | 
21,428,702 |
+---------+------------+-----------+---------+---------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+------------+

*What I think would make the user life easier:*

*list media pool=File human
+---------+------------+-----------+---------+----------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+------------+
| MediaId | VolumeName | VolStatus | Enabled | VolBytes | VolFiles | 
VolRetention | Recycle | Slot | InChanger | MediaType | LastWritten         | 
ExpiresIn  |
+---------+------------+-----------+---------+---------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+------------+
|       1 | Vol-0001   | Error     |       1 |  1,29 GB |        0 |   
31,536,000 |       1 |    0 |         0 | File1     | 2015-10-21 23:57:35 | 248
