Alla:

Um, probably because many people want to read the book and be 
suprised without **anybody** spoiling the surprise of whether Snape 
is good or bad, Harry lives or dies, etc, etc?

To experience the shock of death or the joy that happy ending is 
going to happen first hand?


I **love** spoilers and am reading them, especialy for last Potter 
book - there was no way I would start to read the book without 
knowing that Harry lives or dies for example - NO, not saying 
anything, but boy oh boy I want so much to protect the people who 
want to stay fresh of them, because I totally understand the anger 
they are feeling of those who want to spoil their joy of discovery of 
what is going to happen in the saga that we all spent years reading 
and rereading and debating, etc.
