J.K. Rowling wins copyright infringement case

"The proposed book took an enormous amount of my work and added virtually no original commentary of its own. ... Many books have been published which offer original insights into the world of Harry Potter. The Lexicon just is not one of them.“

I'm happy to see Rowling make this positive nod toward fair use. You can talk about her work; you just can't appropriate it for yourself.
