Me and my friends started a campaign last week which I recorded and edited down from 4 hours to 2 to cut out people asking game mechanics questions with long answers or the GM consulting his notes for more than a few seconds.
Here's the video for anyone interested:

I feel like we have a darn good GM who makes great campaigns and a pretty awesome roster of enthusiastic adventurers but is there a market for this kind of content? I don't really care about making money off of this but just having like a hundred people who followed the campaign and enjoyed it would be awesome and make the effort of putting these videos together worth it for me. Also, if anyone cares to watch, critique is welcome and encouraged.
There's one group out there with really good notoriety - http://geekandsundry.com/shows/critical-role/
They're a bunch of professional voice actors playign D&D.
Two hours is still pretty long. Maybe if you cut it down to 30 - 60 minutes.
Splitting a 2h video into multiple "episodes" should work... Most people aren't willing to spend 2h on an YT video... But they are often willing to spend 15~30 minutes each day.
Just find a good point to cut to the next episode.
I, for one, gave up on watching Critical Role when I saw it was multiple 3h videos.
The success of shows like rollplay, critical role and roll 20's recorded campaigns show that there certainly is a market for it, those shows set the bar pretty high but if you are making good videos you may find success.
Good luck and more importantly have fun!
