I just had 1500 (80-90% Retention) views on my 1hr video on YT and my watch time hours have dropped from 400 to 275, is this just a different server pulling the information through or have YT algorithm worked out that these are paid views? Any ideas?

Ok, so after looking into this, apparently if you have a copyright claim on your video, it does not count towards your watch time hours, even though I downloaded the music as copyright free from Epidemic Sound, for some reason YT marked it as copyrighted music!!!
 
Yes, YouTube sometimes surprises extremely strongly. Dont be upset) :)

Recently, YouTube released an update after which the cheap services stopped working and dropped statistics
You need to buy better views
