Could be wrong, or just more domain-specific, bu my experience is people don’t complain that the video is 15-30 minutes long, is that it’s a video (and that long) when the information could have been more succintly and practically displayed in a text tutorial or a blog format.

Which is kind of interesting, considering it wasn't that long ago that people asked for tutorials and other information in the shape of videos because they couldn't be bothered to read shit.

I womder if "history is cyclic" applies here somehow and all that...

But I feel it's kinda a more domain-specific thing. I'd venture and take the guess that people in some fields such as origami or other arts & crafts, as well as cooking, would actually have far better use for instructions and how-tos in video format (or at least in audio...) than in text, for one.

(I'll be both happy and unhappy to be ackshually'd, and for the same reasons :p)
