Thank you so much for your comments. The revenue-sharing list began with what I showed in the image, and I expected many more to follow, but none have so far. This copyright issue has been escalated to Partner Support, and the team has been incredibly patient, caring, and helpful — I’m truly grateful.
Yesterday, an email from a fellow pianist pulled me out of my frustration and reminded me why I started. I’ve decided to keep the channel going.
I would like to share the pianist's wise words with all of you:
"While YouTube's Content ID system certainly has its flaws, we should consider the enormous scale they're operating at. With billions of hours of content uploaded and hundreds of millions of copyright claims processed annually, the platform faces challenges that no individual creator could possibly resolve alone. Interestingly, statistics show that only about 1% of claims are actually disputed, yet among those that are, over 60% are successful - suggesting that while the system isn't perfect, it does provide meaningful recourse for legitimate disputes.
As frustrating as these issues are, I think it's worth remembering that YouTube has provided us with an unprecedented platform to share our knowledge and creativity with global audiences - something that would have been unimaginable just decades ago. For many creators, including educational channels like yours, it has also provided financial opportunities, however modest they might be for some of us.
As early adopters of the platform, we've been fortunate to witness and benefit from the digital revolution in content creation. While the platform certainly isn't without its problems, I believe we owe it some measure of gratitude for the opportunities it has provided."
