I agree that there is a distinction, but the EFFECT is the same. I don't think that Pottermore ( or similar future efforts by other authors) will have any direct effect on the agency pricing model. There may be INDIRECT effects through Pottermore's successful use of innovative pricing schemes. But we don't know as yet what those schemes might be, or that they will be successful. We'll have to see.
