Watermarked epubs should be interesting. How'll they do that, put a code inside the metadata? Which could only be removed by someone who knows how to unzip files & edit html?

Watermarks are likely to be not-very-useful if they're not visible to the end user. Well. Not useful in the "prevent unauthorized copies" sense. If there's no visible watermark, someone will blithely upload the files to torrents & filesharing sites, and Rowling will be within her rights to track down & sue that person--but the files will already be spreading.
