I did not get the CDs free for the LPs I had bought when I moved from albums to CDs. I don't expect to get the digital version of books that I purchased for free now.

If I want the e-book version of something I already own, I buy it. I have probably repurchased about 50 books for my e-reader because I wanted to read the e-book version. I will repurchase the Harry Potter books when they become available as e-books.

I have a feeling that is going to be a long, long time coming.
