Not to flame overly much, but Rowling has sold more books than most writers in the world, pretty much only being eclipsed by God. And she thinks the opposite (and does so quite forcefully, hiring a billion lawyers to try to make sure she will stay off-line (I imagine because she got some sort of sweet deal on hardbacks?)), seemingly quite afraid of ebooks. Is it just that she doesn't have a blog about her thoughts that's making you choose to read Pournelle's instead, or are you interested in his opinion for another reason than his book sales?
