Sorry to be a bore, but I realised there was another that I wanted to reply to.
Kalex - can you not appreciate, or imagine, that JKR might not be too concerned about "how much money she could have made" ?
Firstly, I should think she is well aware of the financial implications for her, and has accepted them. I suspect, in any case, that any sums involved are, relatively speaking in her case, not vast.
And Ms Rowling has explained why - until now - she has not authorised e-versions, which seem to me genuine.
Finally, your implication that she's only in it for the money, as it were, hardly stands up to the way she has given large amounts of $$$$$$$ to medical research and child welfare, and the fact that she hasn't - as yet anyway, when the big bucks were there for the taking - launched into Terminator/Rambo/DieHard 27 syndrome.
So, and I hope this is sufficiently polite enough for our Moderators - please, grow up.
