Google is not a monopoly, but rather the opposite. They compete in many different fields rather than monopolize a single one. Meta-cafe, megavideo, break, etc. are competition. A company is not a monopoly as long as they have competition and Google has competition in virtually every market it takes part in.

You, sir, have made an uneducated claim, most likely due to some personal issues. Please keep it inside.

Yeah that 10 minute limit is a killer. It doesn't make sense PC wise, as Devon stated. It's like those import racer guys that throw up fart pipe exhaust, get turbo, lower their cars but don't tune their engine, set their gear ratios, get their suspension set and then go revving on grandmothers and get smoked by a stock six cylinder honda accord.

Or the wacky civil engineers that design 10 mph circle curve on ramps that give you 50 feet and one lane to merge with 3 other ramps to get to 60 mph on the freeway.

YOu'd think google woulda heard of 15 minutes of fame at least make it 15! Or the standard 30 minutes . . .

Youtube used to be uber without the google shiz, now there's ads and junk. Well even something as good as google has to have epic failures.

And videos.google has no time limit, I've seen average janes load up hour long videos up there.

Someone said if you can't say it in 10 mins its worthless. Shortsighted, man. As people upload concerts, user made movies, song mixes etc . . .

For those who don't know this the correct length of video uploading for any NORMAL account (not PARTNERS accounts) is in fact 11minutes. Even though it says 10min upload you can still fit in an extra minute. If you go over 1 second of an 11:00 upload it will be rejected

11:00 [ OKAY ], 11:01 [TOO LONG!]

I think their original intention for the time limit was not to allow the uploading of copyright infringing material like movies or TV Series episodes. I think they should re-evaluate their strategy though, cuz there's a bunch of music videos there anyways and other stuff.

Is this why I can't upload a video? I've had trouble since Friday the 26th!

My video was just over 5 minutes and it uploaded only 1.5 minutes....with no sound. I tried to upload it several times with the same result using two different browsers.

I finally re-recorded it - it ended up just under 5 minutes - and had all the same problems even though the progress bar showed the entire video being uploaded.

Just today I recorded a quick test video of 1 minute 45 seconds, it uploaded 1.5 minutes again, but at least this one has sound.

Anyone know what's up with this?

Youtube is flexing there muscle here, this increased GB makes no diffrence to the video landscape but just puts it out-there that all the talk about how much bandwith is related to there operation profits means nothing to them,

Just postilation, not a good sign for investors, film makers or modesty, may be they are a corporation after-all, lets hope real players eaking out a business model of credibility are not to hampered by the Youtube video market created anomoly.

One small step for Youtube, 10 steps backwards for the video market space.

Go Google MONOPOLY.

would be very curious to know how much a change like this impacts YouTube/Google's financials. Wonder what their projections are in terms of increased bandwidth and server costs, etc.

Partners can upload 20GB files. Easier if you need to upload a feature length video.
