The "secret VIP" he mentions in the article is called VIP Tours, which cost at least $425 per hour for a minimum of 7 hours. They're the only reliable way to skip the line. So there is a pay-a-lot-for-the-best-experience tier.
Much like nightclub VIP, however, you can also bring nine other people with you, which brings the total cost down to under $300 per person for the whole day. Probably the best way to do Disney, if you can get a large enough group together.
