YouTube 'Director' accounts used to offer the option of posting clips longer than ten minutes. At some point they removed that option, but did not retroactively apply it to people who already had 'director' accounts, just new sign-ups/applications (hence, perhaps, the confusion...). I'll be damned if I can think of what else a 'director' account actually gets you other than some personal branding next to your user name....
