TikTok is testing 60-minute videos. That's bad news for YouTube.
  • TikTok is testing 60-minute videos, challenging YouTube's long-form content domain.
  • TikTok has gradually increased its maximum video length to 10 minutes for all users.
  • Longer videos may shift viewership from streaming services such as YouTube.

TikTok is giving some users the option to upload 60-minute videos to the platform. That could spell trouble for YouTube and other streaming giants.

The pilot was first publicly spotted by the social-media analyst Matt Navarra. TikTok confirmed the feature to TechCrunch on Thursday.
