It's a little too late as I see it. I already spent my money. Why would I want to spend it again? I'm sorry, but I am not purchasing any Harry Potter ebooks should they become legal. It's hypocritical. What I can expect to see is these ebooks being released and then the DRM removed and them distributed. I know some folks who will pirate the heck out of a protected CD in protest to the protection. I think the same sort of thing is gonna happen here if HP is released.
