So longer is not really 'better', just adds to the endless ocean of free shit.
STOP GIVING AWAY FULL SCENES would be a great place to start.

Lenght of time of the video is really irrelevant, it is the content on the video that is what really matters. I could put together a 10 min video that would basically be a strip tease for 9.5 mins and the last .5 she gets naked and just starts to do something right when it ends. And here is a tip for you, THAT is what will convert the best. Sure most people will bail and not stay to the end but if she does a good job of keeping them close, and getting them to hang on just a little more, and before they know it they invested 10 mins and now they really want to see what happens next. The KEY TO EVERYTHING IS capturing their time, the longer they spend on your site, watching your video, on your blog, chatting with the chathost, etc etc etc the more attached they become and the better chance you have of making a sale. For each of those things are slightly different actions/reactions for the surfer, but its the same basic concept and logic.
On the flip side if you show a 1 minute clip of hardcore fucking with a hot looking chick that fits their fetish perfectly, then they will be gone in about 45 second because they would have came, close out your site and never remember what the name was muchless come back or sign up.
