Sony To Release the Interview Online Today; Apple Won't Play Ball

An anonymous reader writes "The BBC reports: "Sony Pictures is to distribute its film The Interview online, after a cyber-attack and a row over its release. The film will be offered on a dedicated website — seetheinterview.com — as well as via Google and Microsoft services." Notably absent among the services to provide The Interview is Apple. The New York Times reports: "According to people briefed on the matter, Sony had in recent days asked the White House for help in lining up a single technology partner — Apple, which operates iTunes — but the tech company was not interested, at least not on a speedy time table. An Apple spokesman declined to comment. "

    Or it matches the Apple business model and not that of Netflix. Apple sucks.

    So Apple doesn't show the movie because "it matches the Apple business model", and that's why Apple sucks. What happen to you, did Tim Cook steal your girlfriend?
