| | |  Potter's magic boosts HMV sales
The release of the newest Potter novel has given HMV, a music and books retailer, a boost in sales, sending them back into positive territory.
DVD sales also increased by 20% as people avoided the summer floods, and opted to stay home instead.
The store also managed to sell around 500,000 copies of Deathly Hallows after cutting the price down to £8.99.

__________________ I gotta go back to the muggle world,
they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,
but you know what? It was real. It did happen.
We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. |

That was my reaction too  probably to make up for less people buying music & movies.
