Pottermore is bringing Harry Potter to the
digital format with ebooks and has signed a deal with Google to use
their literary services for this purpose. This fall, Harry Potter will
make its ebook debut on Google eBooks, which lets users port their
purchases to 80 other readers. The ebooks will be available via Google
eBooks, as well as its iOS and Android apps. However, since the Kindle
doesn't support ePUB or PDF files, it is not clear how the eBooks will
be supported on that device. The books, as previously reported, will be
DRM free.
Google also said that it will provide the payment platform via Google
Checkout and the video platform via YouTube for this digital Harry
Potter experience. This means, that you will be paying for the eBooks
directly to Google as opposed to other services like PayPal or Amazon
Payments. Pottermore is expected to open up in October. Since the
release of the last movie in the series, Potter fanaticism is at an all
time high and Pottermore seems to be catching fans just at the right
time. Google, too, will stand to gain by partnering with the Pottermore
website right at the opportune moment.
Well, a very non-shocking news. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 2 has created Hollywood history by becoming the movie to gross the maximum on the opening day.
Deathly Hallows Part 2 grossed an estimated $92.1 million Friday, Warner Bros. said.
The take was nearly as big as the year's biggest three-day weekend to
date, and $20 million bigger than the opening-day record held by the Twilight franchise's New Moon.
It was also Hollywood's largest-ever single-day gross, blowing away, among others, New Moon, Eclipse and The Dark Knight.
Speaking of Batman…
The box-office tracking firm Exhibitor Relations today guestimated the final Harry Potter will smash The Dark Knight's three-year-old opening-weekend record with a $175 million Friday-Sunday domestic haul.
So, to recap: Opening-day record; single-day record; opening-weekend record (probably).
