Generally speaking I'm the same as Josh Kinberg: 3 mins/ 25 MB.
But it depends on a lot of factors. If there is a good text description of
the video I'm more likely to watch, if I don't know what I'll be watching
my patience with the piece is very low. Often I don't click through at all
i regularly download files in the 80-100Mb via fireant, although most
are smaller.
i tend to be less patient in the browser. if there is a feed, i'll use
that instead if it makes sense. if not, i'll download it in the
background. i generally multi-task and so rarely care how long the
i'd agree with josh/andreas that over 3 mins is often too much, i don't think this is directly related to my attention span (e.g. i'm a big tarkovsky fan), but purely due to the fact that i'm usually at my computer and multitasking when i watch them, and often have lots of them to watch!!

You're my hero. 4MB/min is too much for most stuff.

3 minutes doesn't seem like a long time for a video. until you've got 20 of them to watch.i'll take a 30-second video that's so rockin' i have to watch it three times in a row, over a three-minute one where i'm fast-forwarding going "ok ok... i get it."disclaimer-- i am far from your typical
OK, so now i'm wondering if those of us, like me, who prefer shorter
videos are simply more vocal than others. Come on, there's got to be

And Markus posted the quote right after: URL:
If it is something interesting, I don't mind the longer clips at
all. I usually load 'em up in a new tab (firefox) and carry on
with whatever I was doing until they are done.

Here is my take on the length issue.

a lot of people seem to download Democracy Now, which is roughly an

Personally, I can't watch anything much over 3 minutes, whether its a
vlog or a TV show. I really don't like to see vlog entries that are
more than 30 MB. Again, this is simply a personal
I personally like smaller vlogs. 3 minutes is long enough for me.I'm pretty impatient when it comes to download times. Assuming its entertaining enough to watch 30 mins, I would consider it.I also limit my videos to under 3 mins but that's usually because that's all the footage I have. My
