45 seconds is too long for me. I only listend to 6ish seconds.

Vine is 6 seconds and that's also visual. Tweets are read in 10 seconds.

It's a tough balance between making the clips long enough for the creators to sing their song / tell their joke but short enough to where it's not annoying for listeners. I don't quite know the equilibrium yet.

The looping nature of Vine videos for me typically makes the videos longer ( or at least the amount of time I spend watching them ). Maybe if we looped the sound clips we could get away with shorter?

Thanks for the feedback
