Question Belt sizes

Here's a question born of shear ignorance and the inability to find the answere anywhere. What is the difference in a 2x48" belt grinder and a 2x72" belt grinder, other than one has a longer belt? I seem to find a wide selection in both types of belts and the
2x48" inch model I'm looking at is about $120 cheaper than the like model with the longer belt. What will the longer belted unit do for me that the shorter belted model won't and for less money?
