And this is why I have no problem having her books on my Kindle. When she gets off her butt and sells them I will buy them.

I think she knows exactly that there is high quality ebooks of Harry Potter floating around. And she also knows that there is no undoing it. She might even like that somebody put so much efford into scanning and OCRing the books in in an age where it is so much easier to simply copy a preexisting ebook. By not releasing official ebooks for sale or even free JKR has complete control over the ebooks. Why? Because nobody can steal her ebooks and change the text in it. Plus no worries if a certain copy is legit / legal since
every ebook is not legit by default. Pretty clever if you think about it.
