Absolutely not. If I like a song, then the longer it is the better (within reason). Songs like "Supper's ready" by Genesis, "Grendel" by Marillion, "Freebird", "Stairway to Heaven", "Bat out of Hell"... I could go on. Brevity is by no means any measure or guarantee of quality. Sometimes you have to let the song have time to develop to fully appreciate it, and that's seldom (though not never) possible with a 3/4 minute song.
