YouTube and your earnings
Why add a video that is already on YouTube?
YouTube is where your video lives. Pilates.TV is where the Pilates community finds it. One link, no second upload, a whole new audience.
Does Pilates.TV affect my YouTube earnings?

Does Pilates.TV take a share of my YouTube revenue?
Your YouTube earnings stay between you and YouTube. Pilates.TV earns from its own Sponsored placements.
Do plays on Pilates.TV count on YouTube?
Every play runs through YouTube’s player, and YouTube counts views by its own rules. Pilates.TV keeps its own numbers too.
Does Pilates.TV make a copy of my video?
Your video stays on YouTube. Pilates.TV lists it and plays it from there.
Who controls my video?
You do, on YouTube. The title, thumbnail and privacy settings all come from your YouTube video.
What if I change, hide or delete it on YouTube?
Your listing follows your YouTube video. A private or deleted video stops playing here too, and you can remove the listing any time under My videos.
Will Pilates.TV compete with my channel?
It works for your channel. Pilates.TV brings people who are looking for Pilates straight to your videos, and they play from YouTube.
Do I need a monetized YouTube channel?

Comments stay where they are posted: Pilates.TV comments here, YouTube comments on YouTube. You manage your Pilates.TV comments from your channel.
Can I approve comments before they show?

Are Pilates.TV subscribers my YouTube subscribers?
They are separate. Viewers can subscribe to you here, on YouTube, or both.
Why are my numbers different here and on YouTube?

Someone reported my video. What happens?
Our team checks every report against the Community Guidelines. A video that follows them stays up. Reports are private, so the person who sent one stays anonymous.
My Classical video moved to Contemporary. Why?
Viewers can flag a video marked Classical as not classical. When enough of them do, it moves to Contemporary and we email you. Your video stays live the whole time.
