Behind Harry Potter Delivery, Months Of Plotting
from the and-yet,-people-still-got-fired dept
I've heard from a few people who were amazed at the efficiency of the various delivery services getting the latest Harry Potter book on their doorsteps early Saturday morning - the day of its release. The Washington Post is looking at the planning that went into the delivery process of a book that is setting all sorts of sales records. Of course, the article misses out on the story of those who may get fired for accidentally delivering the Harry Potter book a day early.

Is it just me?
I hope that Scholastic, Amazon and everybody else who's gone nuts trying to push this crap as being the greatest thing since sliced bread, lose a ton of money in the process.
The book was available for download to anyone with internet access *weeks* ago.

The big deal around the lauch date was mostly marketing - no different than NBC closely guarding the Friends season finale. You don't NBC would go bezerk in the same situation?
