Good stuff -- each directive has a meaning, and if you wanted most
requests to have the 180 rate limit, then you put it in the right place.

Changing the "mp4" location to be "~ -720\.mp4$" means that those ones
will have the higher rate; but if you don't have a second location{}
for the other mp4s, they won't see the "mp4" directive, and so may not
be served correctly.

That's fine -- wget does a similar task to curl; and it's always good
to be able to demonstrate that the change you made fixed what was broken
(and didn't break what was already right).
