Some record longer. This one has 2 hours of voice record time:

It would be really easy to record even longer with SSD technology.
New generation CVR's are hard drive based not taped loops, and have much longer recording times, some hold 24 hours of recording. 30 min is just the requirement, and was made when CVR's ran 12 track tape recorders.
