You are getting it wrong, We are talking about Half a Billion Dollar worth Businesses not some tv shows. Are these Companies or products worth the money they are valued at, Are they creating sustainable businesses and products and Are they helping or improving technology and community as a whole.

One season of the 24 tv show can bring in over 200 million dollars in ad revenue.

Television and other ad funded entertainment are certainly not small business.
