A quick bit of arithmetic indicates that this is an average of $400 each. Don’t give up the day job for the career of a pixel-stained technopeasant just yet.

What does that URL mean? Doctorow’s second law? 
EDIT: ah, found it: B2fxxx: Doctorow's three law's
First law: Any time someone puts a lock on something that belongs to you, and won’t give you a key, they’re not doing it for your benefit.
Second law: It’s hard to monetize fame but it’s impossible to monetize obscurity i.e. fame won’t guarantee fortune, but no one has ever gotten rich by being obscure.
Third law: making it easy to censor and spy on everyone to protect copyright is a bad idea and bad practice i.e. information doesn’t want to be free, people do.
