When Pottermore launched, they got a lot of kudos for offering DRM-free ebooks, seemingly giving momentum to the forces of DRM-free goodness. I even bought one just to see how it worked. This allowed me to easily fix the broken drop caps that they pushed to the Kindle Store (without invoking the Alfalacious charm that is). (The drop caps are still broken...)

I'm not sure when it happened, but they are no longer offering DRM-free ebooks and are using Adobe DRM. It's rather disappointing.
