&gt; Is there a way YouTube could alter the &quot;view count&quot; to only include views where 100% of the video has been watched?<p>You wouldn&#x27;t want to require 100%, as many people stop when a video starts rolling credits, or when it switches to a screen using annotations to link to other videos.  But 50-75% would work well as a threshold to count &quot;views&quot;.
