YouTube enables unlimited length video uploads for some regular users

http://bit.ly/guUHaS  (Official YouTube Blog)

This is actually a very big deal.  As far as I know, YouTube's video
upload limit (per video) for ordinary users (there have been special
account classifications without limits) has always been 10 minutes,
until last July when it was bumped up to 15.

YouTube has now announced that for "selected users with a history of
complying with the YouTube Community Guidelines and our copyright
rules" there is no longer any upload length limit for appropriate
material.  (Checking my VortexTech YouTube account - yep, it
qualifies.)

Not having to rip apart longer videos into 10 or 15 minutes segments
for uploading will save an enormous amount of time, and make viewing
much easier as well.  

Excellent.
