That way I have a super-solid track selection, maintain people's attention, and then turn it off and leave them wanting more for next time.
However, any time when it's an infrequent appearance or a less-engaging/deep/chillout mix, I go for an hour. Throwing in a lot of old stuff? Maybe an hour and a half tops. The thing is, without a live audience to play for, after 90 minutes I start to wonder if the imaginary person I'm playing for in my head is still interested and... well, things just naturally end :P
