Grab those old full length concert videos and start uploading. Back in July, YouTube raised the upload limit to 15 minutes for all users. Starting today, they're [allowing](http://youtube-global.blogspot.com/2010/12/up-up-and-away-long-videos-for-more.html??ref=hypebot.com) most users with a history of complying with the YouTube Community Guidelines and their copyright rules to upload videos that are longer.

  
Users can click the “Upload” button at the top of the site to see if their account qualifies. If you’re uploading a video that was previously rejected for being too long, YouTube advises that you go into “My Videos” and delete the old video before uploading it again.
