I completely disagree - it's because of us that she no longer has to
worry about anything financial for the rest her and her daughter's life.
Same with Bloomsbury - because of us, the fans who fork out hard earned
money, they are now in a position to search out new authors and books.

What do you think would happen to them if revenues dropped to 0? 

They may not be sitting on the book, but It is a strategic move to earn
single dime possible from the previous books. Doing this with products
not as popular as HP would adversely affect future sales of the
products, because consumers would have lost respect for the company and
the product.

Like I said...I'm at a crossroads...I don't care to give them a dime
right now, but unfortunately I'm addicted to the story, and this is what
allows them to continue take more and more time, because they know we'll
buy regardless.

dime right now?).
