After a long stream of controversial news around Twitter, we can -finally- make a purely functional announcement: from now on, users who have an account on Twitter Blue they will be able to upload videos up to 60 minutes duration and with a capacity of up to 2GB only in the web version.
This extension responds to the promise that Elon Musk made when he assumed the direction of the social network and which consisted of carrying out a complete facelift of the platform, making it more attractive to content creators.
From 10 minutes and 512 MB to 60 minutes and 2GB
Until now, premium users had a 10 minute and 512 MB limit to upload videos. At the moment, this extension is only available in the desktop version, because if the file is uploaded to the app from iOS or Android, this limit still applies. Regarding the resolution, it is also maintains 1080p qualitybut Twitter does not rule out improving the values in the future in the event that the content wants to be distributed.
From the official Web, the company explained that “We strive to maintain the highest possible video quality for all videos uploaded to our platform. However, we can modify or adapt your original video for distribution, syndication, publication or broadcast by us and our partners and/or make changes to adapt it to different media, including changing the resolution and bit rate of the original video during transmission based on the speed and stability of the viewer’s Internet connection.
More minutes, more advertising
With this expansion, Twitter also could incorporate more of its own advertising in the audiovisual pieces, although nothing has been clarified on this subject yet.
On the other hand, there is also challenge to fight the possible hackingsince with this length users will be able to upload fragments of movies, television programs or entire episodes of series, something that has already happened even with the 10-minute limit.
