Oyster, which offers unlimited access to more than 1 million e-books for $9.95 a month, just announced it's adding the Harry Potter series to its library.
To do this, it's partnering with the website Pottermore (which has been getting attention recently for publishing new, Potter-related stories from author J.K. Rowling).
The partnership covers all seven Harry Potter novels, as well as Rowling's three "Hogwarts Library" books - Quidditch Through the Ages, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, and The Tales of Beedle the Bard. ( Pottermore has also partnered with Amazon to bring the series to the Kindle Lending Library.)
While adding the series is undeniably a big win for Oyster (one that the company will definitely be trumpeting, for example by replacing its Reader Themes with House Themes from the books), it may be worth noting that this doesn't entirely break from the service's...
