I will note that I was just guessing at what the argument was, I don’t really see it as taking royalties away, but as a cash grab, cashing in on nostalgia. I mean each book a season? Ok… sure this is like ‘the hobbit’ being made 3 films.
Though it wouldn’t surprise me all that much if evidence came out ms Rowling really pitched it to try and keep the paycheck from the three from the movie. They have been somewhat vocal about their disagreements with her ‘takes’
