Nah, I already read all of them. I'm glad I did, but I have no desire to go back and reread them. Part of the thrill was the whole serial nature of them. Now that the surprise has been revealed, they don't interest me.

They are also available at TPL (Toronto Public Library) but not at the Mississauga or Ottawa libraries. TPL has both epub and audiobooks.

They are coming to Mississauga. I emailed them to ask why so many other Ontario cities were getting them but not us. I was told not to worry, they are definately getting both the ebooks and the audiobooks. I just don't know when but they are.

I was really pleased about the quick response time too. I emailed during the day on Thursday & got a response in a little over an hour.

The whole Pottermore thing is just a fiasco. I don't understand why they can't just open part of it to sell the e-books and audiobooks, without necessarily opening up all the rest of the site yet to everyone. The huge sales they'd get from the books might even let them upgrade their tech support for it and get the darn thing actually functional!

There are tons of fans out there who will still buy the ebooks, even though we (I) already own them all in either hard or paperback.

Most likely: the contract.
Lots of parties to the thing; it's not just Rowling and whatever part of Sony is supposed to develop the site.

After the initial rush is over, I may check out a few audiobooks to see what this Harry Potter is about.

Books 3-7 are no longer available for holds at the Arlington County (VA) library. When I do a search for Rowling, nothing shows up, though the holds I have on books 1 and 2 still show.
