Youtube video limit is now 15 minutes

Oh crap.

Imagine that this video is all the world will ever know about you: what would you want to communicate? What will be the enduring stamp you’ve left on us all? Tag your video with “yt15minutes,” upload it by Wednesday, August 4, and we’ll select a handful of people to truly gain their 15 minutes of fame by featuring them on the YouTube homepage in a future spotlight.

Not just you... I'm lucky if I can get a video to play from start to finish even on the lowest quality setting without it constantly pausing to buffer anymore.

WHAT?! Are you telling me 13yr old girls crying about middle school drama now have to keep their videos to only 15 minutes?! This is an outrage! No injustice has ever been greater than this!

And with one small sentence, Vegeta invalidates everyone's posts thus far. Or at least I think so, some are kinda vague.

I'd support a pay version of YouTube.

The 30 minute videos were handed out to the scarce amount of Google Video accounts and those who have clearance on how long they want their videos. The extra 5 minutes means that Google just bought out another portion of the worlds forests to plonk their servers onto.

That's because you are Satan's bride.

 

[V-Man339]

I wouldn't mind a youtube that wasn't perpetually scanned for copyright violation.
(That people actually use unlike dailyvideo vimeo etc.)

 

[Bad^Hat]

So isn't youtube losing millions per day or something?

Just sayin'.

 

[xombine]

Yeah the limit was 10 before, you had to get a director account to go any longer.

 

[Druckles]

So this is bad news, right?

For people with taste.
