I like to have some idea of how long the book will be. Even on the Freebies on Amazon I'll check the file size and determine if the summary warrants a short story or something smaller.

I'm not a fan of short stories unless I know the universe it's in. I don't mind them in fanfic, but not a fan of going in blind on something short.

On the other hand, people can add a lot of padding to any format to make it seem longer, whether that padding is huge fonts and margins, or a lot of unnecessary story that does nothing for the plot line. So you can't always be sure.
