So, is it a $300 video gets a $30 million deal, like the title, or a $30 video gets a $300 million movie deal?

Based on the comments from people who appear to have RTFA, it seems the title is correct: $300 / $30 million. I sure hope whoever wrote that summary is working in entertainment and not engineering. Hollywood gets things wrong by a factor of ten all the time and no one dies, right?

[ Come on, that's a softball - someone post a good response. ]

At least he didn't use Doc Brown's unit of energy, the jiggawatt."
