That's exactly what I've seen, although even 5 minutes seems long unless the topic and delivery are absolutely compelling. People simply stop watching, and often after only a minute or so. While that will always be the case for some who wander into a video accidentally, it seems there is a relatively short attention span for information, and possibly even for entertainment.

First, I've mucked about with Gimp on and off (more off than on) for years. BEST 'HOW TO' EVER! Thank you!
I think the key to demo videos is to cover one topic, no frills, to the point. I get wicked tired of watching someone talk about what they're going to talk about for 5 minutes...get...to...the...point. Your Gimp video is spot on.
