Podfic Clip Length

[paraka]

I'm working on a podfic right now where the working copy is broken into a lot of short parts and it got me wondering. What is people's preferred length for podfic clips? Do people prefer one long file? Do you prefer multiple files for longer fic? How long is too long? How short is too short?

For me, personally, I listen to podfics on computers so as long as the naming convention is one that'll have everything show up in order if I click play all and so long as I don't have to download each individual file I don't really care. But I've heard some people give an opinion on length before, especially if you listen on an mp3 player. I just don't know if there was ever a consensus on what was better.

I'm not really concerned about the podfics I download to listen to, but rather setting up the ones I'm doing so that they aren't a pain in the butt for listeners.

Interesting about changing the metadata. I didn't know you could do that.
