Quote from J.K.R on her website:
Quote:
"From what I understand, the proposed book is not criticism or review of Harry Potter's world, which would be entirely legitimate -- neither I nor anybody connected with Harry Potter has ever tried to prevent such works being published. It is, we believe, a print version of the website, except now the information that was freely available to everybody is to become a commercial enterprise."

What a Luddite the woman is, does she not realise that the Lexicon website does generate money so it is a commercial enterprise?
As far as I am aware, there is no difference in copyright law between publishing online or in print. She accepted the online content and even gave the site a fan award. Therefore, why does she object to the same content being available in print?
