I've read them, but I don't own them. Thus I can't lend them or give them away. My neighbor, a big reader as well, has not read them. I know lots of people who have not read them. One day, they might get curious and wish to read them. Just because there are lots of them at half-priced books doesn't mean that someone with an e-reader won't go out, do a web search, find the site and think, 'oh good, I can download a copy and see what this is all about." Happens all the time.
And there is a whole new batch of kids that will hear about the latest movie. They may not have read the books either. That new batch of kids is more likely than the last to own an e-reader.
Let's just say I'm not worried about her sales. For a few years yet, Harry Potter will still be a recognized name and so long as it is bandied about there will be people checking out and buying the products--in various forms.
