Pretty much the only issue I had with the pottermore experience was the insistence on a password that was "strong" and the type in the two words that you may or may not be able to figure out bit. I'm not sure what they are trying to protect here.

The amazon version did seem to have DRM set, at least the deDrm program said it was set. I doubt people will be pirating the version they get from pottermore. After all, the books were pirated long ago. Heck, the last one was pirated before the book was available in the stores.

I'm going to be very interested to see what sort of business they do. I've already bought mine, of course. We will see if all those parents with iPads loaded with games to keep the kids amused will buy ebooks that the kids might read.
