The past few months have been phenomenal for us here at YouTube, thanks to all of you. We've been going through unprecedented growth. Most days it seems we can barely catch our breath trying to keep up with everything, and sometimes I sit at my desk and look around at the 20 or so people around me and cannot believe how far we've come in such a short period of time.
We want YouTube to be the best place to upload video.
Upload limit increases to 15 minutes for all users
YouTube, Feeling Good About Content ID, Drops 15-Minute Limit On Uploads | paidContent
YouTube (NSDQ: GOOG) announced today that it’s getting rid of a 15-minute limit on the duration of videos uploaded by users.
Your creativity isn’t bound by a time limit, so why should your video uploads be? Back in July we raised the upload limit to 15 minutes for all users. Starting today, we’ll begin allowing selected users with a history of complying with the YouTube Community Guidelines and our copyright rules to upload videos that are longer than 15 minutes.
Up, Up and Away - Long videos for more users
We recently reached an important milestone: we now have over 1,000 content owners using our content identification and management tools , including every major U.S. network broadcaster, movie studio, and record label.

YouTube indirectly responded on its blog today by encouraging its users to dispute the takedowns through a process it already has in place for situations like this. YouTube’s only direct reference to the Hitler parodies was a hyperlink from the word “parody” in the blog post, but it’s clear given the timing that the Downfall takedowns were the reason YouTube spoke up.
