ten seconds is perfect, you aren't supposed to use them to record music or talk shows, for sound effects they are just long enough, plus making them longer would make them load even slower than currently

10s doesn't stop people from chaining together longer sounds out of shorter sound effects, it just makes longer sounds laggier and choppier.

IMHO, they should allow longer sound effects, but charge L$1/second (or even more... L$10/second is reasonable) for uploads. This would reduce lag and discourage the already overly-long sound effects people currently use.
