How long should a sound loop be?

I'm hoping to use a 30 second loop, but I wasn't sure if that's too big. I guess I need to know what a decent file size is.

    I've looped music longer than 30 seconds before and still had my game well under the 20MB 3G limit.

    Nice... OK, that definitely gives me a good idea. Thanks!

    I use one minute loops and I just compress the file. Most people don't play a game with headphones so as to audio fidelity you don't need your files at a crazy sample rate like 44khz. An audio file is in direct relation to the sample rate.
